Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Zack Moss

Wednesday, November 20, 4:42 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (hip) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice, according to Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post. The veteran running back sustained this injury during last weekend's victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. This is a great sign to see him participate in a full practice session early in the week, which suggests this injury was fairly minor. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status during the week if he faces a setback. Over the past two weeks, Mostert has slowly begun to lose work to rookie Jaylen Wright. For now, Mostert should only be viewed as a low-end flex option/RB3 in deeper 14+ team formats until he begins to see an increase in workload.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Zack Moss (neck) will meet with neck specialist Dr. Robert Watkins and is likely to avoid surgery. It's good news for Moss, but he's already been placed on Injured Reserve and will miss the rest of the 2024 season after injuring his next in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He will be shut down for the next two months. In a best-case scenario, the 26-year-old might be able to return if the Bengals make the postseason and make a deep run. In his first year in Cincy, Moss finishes with 74 carries for 242 yards (career-low-tying 3.3 yards per carry) and two touchdowns while snagging 23 of his 27 targets for 187 more yards and a touchdown. The Bengals quickly replaced Moss by trading for Bears RB Khalil Herbert, who should immediately serve as the No. 2 behind Chase Brown, possibly as early as Thursday night against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens.
