Who Should I Start? Travis Etienne Jr. or Javonte Williams

Saturday, November 29, 10:54 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. should be in line for a good fantasy day against the Tennessee Titans in Week 13. Not only should game script favor the Jaguars running game against their 1-10 division rival, but the Titans defense has been extra susceptible to the run compared to the pass. That means the Jaguars game plan on paper should be to run early and often, meaning if Etienne Jr. can find the end zone, he could have a big day. Bhayshul Tuten has had mixed involvement in the rushing attack which could limit Etienne Jr.'s upside slightly, but that shouldn't deter fantasy managers. Start the Jaguars star back with confidence in Week 13.

Across 10 games this season, Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams has recorded 809 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 161 carries. The 25-year-old has dominated backfield touches in Dallas all year long and should continue to do so even after the Cowboys signed running back Malik Davis to the active roster on Saturday. Dallas has a difficult matchup in Week 12 against the Philadelphia Eagles, who have not allowed an opposing offense to score 10 points since Week 8. Still, Philadelphia's biggest strength is against the pass, as they rank 18th in yards per carry allowed (4.3) and 21st in rushing touchdowns allowed (11) among NFL defenses. In his first matchup of the season against the Eagles in Week 1, Williams recorded 64 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 17 touches. He profiles as a must-start fantasy running back in Week 12.
