Who Should I Start? Roschon Johnson or Cam Skattebo

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson (thumb) missed two consecutive practices and has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Johnson was added to the injury report on Thursday and hasn't been able to get on the field since. The extent of his injury is unknown, but it won't have major ramifications in fantasy football anyway. He has just two carries for 17 yards through seven games this season, remaining buried in a depth role behind veteran D'Andre Swift and rookie Kyle Monangai. Travis Homer (hamstring, knee) has also been ruled out for this week, meaning Chicago may have to activate Brittain Brown from the practice squad to fill the No. 3 running back role.

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) underwent season-ending surgery last week, but he is not expected to face a very complicated rehab process, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Although the rookie suffered a dislocated ankle, fractured fibula, and ruptured deltoid ligament in Week 8, he quickly underwent successful surgery and is on track to return to football action within six months. "Even at the very latest benchmark, he should be ready to roll for OTAs and minicamp," Rapoport wrote in an X post about Skattebo. As the Giants approach the back half of their season, they'll turn to Devin Singletary and Tyrone Tracy Jr. to lead their backfield. Redraft managers can drop Skattebo, but dynasty managers should hold onto him, as he'll likely be a high-end RB2 next season.
