Who Should I Start? Rasheen Ali or LeQuint Allen Jr.

Sunday, September 14, 1:56 PM

The Baltimore Ravens have ruled out running back Rasheen Ali (concussion) from returning to Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. A key special teamer for the Ravens will be out of the picture for at least the rest of this week. Additionally, Baltimore did not activate running back Keaton Mitchell ahead of the game, so the club has only its top two running backs, Derrick Henry and Justice Hill, available for the remainder of Sunday.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back LeQuint Allen Jr. hasn't played a significant role this season behind Travis Etienne Jr. and fellow rookie Bhayshul Tuten, but he is likely to see an uptick in snaps with Tuten set to miss a few weeks with a finger injury that will require surgery. Allen handled five touches for 16 yards in the Week 15 blowout win over the New York Jets, his most since Week 11. The rookie seventh-rounder will step into the RB2 role behind Etienne and becomes an interesting deep-league option heading into the Week 16 game against the Denver Broncos on the road. His appeal is limited to deep leagues only, but he could have some standalone value with more touches likely coming his way.
