Who Should I Start? Samaje Perine or Breece Hall

Monday, November 25, 2:47 PM

Kansas City Chiefs running back Samaje Perine took his lone carry for 13 yards and caught both of his targets for an additional 12 yards in the team's 30-27 win over the Carolina Panthers. He also racked up 104 yards on three kick returns with a long gain of 56. Despite logging 32% of Kansas City's snaps, Perine was held to only three touches out of the backfield, even though he was effective on his sole rush attempt. Backfield mate Kareem Hunt dominated backfield touches yet again, out-touching the 29-year-old 19-to-3, while Carson Steele registered three opportunities (one rush). With running back Isiah Pacheco (fibula) due back in short order, the journeyman RB will likely garner even less fantasy value than he does now. The Chiefs will line up against the visiting Las Vegas Raiders next Friday in Week 13.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 16 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Hall missed practice to begin the week, but is now ready to go for this weekend. He returned to the field last week, but struggled as he rushed nine times for 30 yards in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Possibly, Hall was still dealing with the knee issue last week, so hopefully he'll get more involved this weekend. Fantasy managers should go ahead and consider Hall as a RB2 with the expectation that Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis will still get mixed in.
