Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Zack Moss

Saturday, November 29, 11:06 AM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert has served as the primary backup to rookie Ashton Jeanty this season, totaling 20 carries for 92 yards, along with nine receptions (nine targets) for 63 yards in eight games. The veteran hasn't recorded more than four touches in a game since Week 6 against the Tennessee Titans. Mostert would be in line to handle the bulk of the touches for the Raiders if Jeanty were to miss any time, but he remains off fantasy radars for Week 13 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Cincinnati Bengals have released running back Zack Moss. Moss began his tenure in Cincinnati during the 2024 season. He opened the campaign as the starter but eventually fell to the reserve role in favor of Chase Brown. In addition, Moss would see his season cut short due to a neck injury following Week 8. During the early part of the 2025 offseason, Moss was able to participate in team OTAs but was placed on the non-football injury (NFI) list to open training camp. However, the veteran running back has been unable to progress and will instead look for a new club. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Brown to be deployed as the clear three-down back during the 2025 season. Brown flashed high upside as a pass-catching back in 2025 and will have a path to enjoy an RB1 season with less competition on the depth chart.
