Who Should I Start? Ronald Jones II or Kendre Miller

Monday, September 18, 7:43 PM

The Dallas Cowboys released running back Ronald Jones on Monday, the team announced. Jones was eligible to return to the active 53-man roster on Monday after serving a two-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy, but the Cowboys have opted to go in another direction. The 26-year-old will now be hoping to latch on with another organization to provide some backfield depth. Tony Pollard is the team's clear-cut starter, with Rico Dowdle and rookies Deuce Vaughn and Hunter Luepke backing him up in the running back room. Jones shouldn't be rostered in single-year fantasy leagues right now.

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller made his NFL debut last week, rushing nine times for 34 yards against the Green Bay Packers. Miller split work with Tony Jones Jr. and Taysom Hill, and veteran Alvin Kamara returns to the fold this week. While the third-rounder is an intriguing player to keep stashed, he cannot be inserted into lineups this week due to the uncertainty around his role. Monitor the Saints' backfield usage over the next few weeks to see if the rookie carves out a fantasy-relevant role alongside Kamara.
