Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or James Cook

Friday, December 1, 6:24 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert cleared the injury report and is no longer listed with ankle and knee issues. This has been the same song and dance over the last few weeks and it doesn't seem to affect him when it comes to game-time. De'Von Achane is back, however, and Jeff Wilson Jr. is also a factor now. So, despite the fact that the Washington Commanders are 21st against opposing backfields, Mostert comes in as a RB2 because he may not be taking the same amount of snaps this time around.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook could have enjoyed a much bigger fantasy day in Sunday's 37-34 overtime defeat to Philadelphia Eagles, compiling 16 carries for 43 yards with a season-high six receptions for 57 yards. Cook dropped a beautifully floated pass from quarterback Josh Allen on a wheel route in the first quarter, squandering a would-be touchdown. Cook remained heavily involved as a receiver for the rest of the contest in spite of that, recording season-high receiving numbers across the board, which is a promising development for those hoping to see the Bills utilize Cook's elusiveness. It was always likely to be tough sledding for the 24-year-old in wet conditions against Philadelphia's vaunted rushing defense, but it was also encouragingly Cook's third consecutive 100-yard performance. Barring a post-bye Leonard Fournette elevation from the practice squad, Cook should remain a fine RB2 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Dec. 10.
