Who Should I Start? RJ Harvey or Omarion Hampton

Tuesday, November 11, 3:56 PM

Denver Broncos rookie second-round running back RJ Harvey is coming off an underwhelming performance in the Week 10 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, but his fantasy stock may be reaching a high point going into a big Week 11 divisional clash against the Kansas City Chiefs. Lead back J.K. Dobbins suffered a foot injury last Thursday night and may be forced to Injured Reserve, which would keep him out at least four games. In three games before Thursday's lackluster offensive performance by the Broncos, Harvey had 13 carries for 51 yards and two touchdowns while adding seven receptions for 58 yards and three touchdowns through the air. With it looking likely that Dobbins will miss time regardless, Harvey is on the verge of lead-back duties for the Broncos. If he's available on your league's waiver wire, scoop him up immediately.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) was not wearing a walking boot as he watched his teammates warm up ahead of Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The absence of a boot is a promising sign as Hampton inches closer to his return from injured reserve. The rookie has been sidelined since Week 5, leaving Kimani Vidal as the team's lead running back. Once Hampton is healthy enough to return, he should reclaim the every-down role that he occupied prior to his injury. Before he's activated, though, he'd need to be designated to return and log a few promising practice sessions. As soon as he gets back onto the field, he'll rank as a solid RB1 for fantasy football.
