Who Should I Start? RJ Harvey or Ollie Gordon II

Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey will be the workhorse back once again as they face the Green Bay Packers at home in Week 15. Although the Packers rank eighth-best in rushing yards allowed per game, averaging 101.8, Harvey is coming off his best game of the rookie season with 23 touches for 100 total yards and a touchdown. Having six targets in the last game as a frequent checkdown option also pads his floor and shows Harvey's versatility in the offense as a key piece of head coach Sean Payton's game plan. The Packers will be a good test for Harvey as he's rounding out his rookie regular season, alluding to RotoBaller ranking him as the RB19 overall for Week 15.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II got into the end zone for his third touchdown of the season last week against the Jets, but this week, the Dolphins' backfield will be crowded, which could leave the rookie without much work. De'Von Achane (ribs) is expected to play despite an injury to his ribs suffered last week, and Jaylen Wright stepped in and went off in his place against New York. Gordon did have five carries for 17 yards with his touchdown, but only played 16 snaps, compared to Wright's 34. The two will share backup duties behind Achane, who has been sensational while carrying the load in Miami's backfield. Even while sharing backup duties with Wright, Gordon will have some touchdown-dependent upside, but his workload is too uncertain to make him a reliable play in Week 15 against the Steelers, leaving him as the RB59 in RotoBaller's rankings, well off the starting radar in all but the deepest of leagues.
