Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Cam Skattebo

Monday, September 15, 8:54 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert is once again a healthy scratch for Week 2 in a Monday night matchup against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. Mostert was also a healthy scratch last Sunday in the season-opening win over the New England Patriots. The 33-year-old is buried on the Raiders' RB depth chart early in the year in his first season in Vegas. The Raiders will roll with rookie starter Ashton Jeanty, Zamir White, and Dylan Laube as their top three RBs. Until further notice, Mostert should remain on the waiver wire in all fantasy formats. He's just a year removed from his first Pro Bowl selection in 2023 with the Miami Dolphins, when he produced a career-high 1,012 rushing yards and a league-high 18 rushing touchdowns in 15 starts. Mostert had only 278 rushing yards and two TDs last year, though, and has had trouble staying healthy in his career.

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo rushed for 45 yards on 11 rushing attempts and a touchdown while catching two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 40-37 overtime loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Skattebo broke off a 24-year run in the fourth quarter, which was the longest run of the day for the Giants. He later punched it in for his first career touchdown. Skattebo outpaced Tyrone Tracy Jr. 11 to five in rushing attempts on Sunday and could have earned more touches with his great performance against Dallas. Skattebo will look to build on Sunday's performance in Week 3 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Giants' rookie RB is only rostered in 58% of leagues and is worth picking up for fantasy teams needing help at running back.
