Who Should I Start? Terrell Jennings or Kyle Monangai

Friday, November 21, 9:21 PM

New England Patriots running back Terrell Jennings has been a non-factor in the offense in recent weeks. Jennings only saw four carries in Week 10 and didn't play any offensive snaps against the New York Jets last week. TreVeyon Henderson has been excellent over the last two games, so Jennings hasn't been needed in the rushing game. Fellow back Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) is currently questionable to suit up against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12. If he returns, Jennings is unlikely to touch the field at all. Regardless, Jennings is expected to have a minimal role in the offense going forward.

Chicago Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai recorded 12 carries for 48 yards and a touchdown in his team's 31-28 Week 12 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. After veteran Bears back D'Andre Swift coughed up a fumble early in the game against Pittsburgh, Monangai worked as the team's feature back for much of the remainder of the contest. There's no question that the 23-year-old is emerging as a key piece in the Bears' offense. Monangai has now scored a rushing touchdown in three straight weeks. For the season overall, he's recorded 461 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 99 carries. While Swift should be expected to remain the passing-downs back in Chicago, Monangai may be establishing himself as the team's preferred early-down and goal-line option. In any fantasy league with 12 or more teams where he remains available, Monangai should be a priority waiver-wire target heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
