Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Miles Sanders

Sunday, December 28, 2:59 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) is inactive for his team's Week 17 matchup against the New York Giants due to ankle and knee injuries. The 33-year-old has recorded 174 scrimmage yards on 34 touches across 12 games so far this season in a backup role behind Raiders RB1 Ashton Jeanty. With Mostert sidelined, Jeanty could see more of a true three-down role in Week 17 against New York. Raiders reserve running backs Dylan Laube and Zamir White could see an uptick in playing time as well. The Giants have been one of the NFL's worst defenses against the run this season, so Jeanty could be in line for a big day if he dominates backfield touches in Week 17.

Dallas Cowboys running back Miles Sanders (ankle, knee) has been moved to season-ending injured reserve, according to Patrick Walker of the Dallas Cowboys. Sanders was limited in practice on Wednesday before missing Thursday's practice, but now his season is over as he deals with multiple injuries to his ankle and knee. The 28-year-old served as the primary backup running back to Javonte Williams over the first four games of the season before missing Week 5. Rookie Jaydon Blue was active in his place and should step into a larger role now with Sanders out. Blue shouldn't be in lineups for Week 6, but he is an interesting speculative pickup ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.
