Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Kyren Williams

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (hip) upgraded to a full practice session on Friday and has been removed from the Week 15 injury report. After missing the Week 14 overtime win over the division-rival New York Jets, Mostert will return to face the Houston Texans on the road this Sunday. The Dolphins will have all three of their RBs active against Houston, with Mostert most likely operating as more of the RB3 behind starter De'Von Achane and rookie Jaylen Wright. After scoring a league-high 18 rushing touchdowns in 2023, the 32-year-old veteran has fallen way back down to Earth and has only two TDs while averaging a career-worst 3.6 yards per carry on 65 rushing attempts. In his last four games, Mostert has 10 carries for 22 rushing yards. He will be picking up scraps behind Achane and belongs on the waiver wire in 12-team fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams has had a quality season. He's already gone for over 1,000 yards on the ground while also combining for 14 touchdowns. Although the 24-year-old has averaged only 4.0 yards per carry, fantasy managers have been pleased with his production. With Los Angeles looking to make the playoffs, Williams and company will meet the Jets in Week 16. New York has allowed 23.2 points per contest this season, which isn't the most efficient mark in the National Football League. However, the Jets have surrendered only nine rushing touchdowns during the 2024-25 campaign, which isn't good news for Williams, who has relied heavily on his ability to find the end zone for most of his fantasy production. Still, the 24-year-old is one of the best backs in the league, so he remains a must-start in Week 16.
