Who Should I Start? Travis Etienne or Rhamondre Stevenson

Sunday, October 1, 10:45 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. rushed 20 times for 55 yards, adding three catches for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-7 win against the Falcons. Atlanta did a great job shutting down the running game, as Etienne struggled to find room all day. While the 24-year-old was held in check for the most part, he still reached double-digit fantasy points, giving fantasy managers a solid floor play yet again. The former first-round pick also continued his bell-cow status, reaching 23 touches for the third time this season. Etienne will look to continue his next week against the tough Bills defense.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for just 30 yards on 14 carries against the Cowboys on Sunday evening. He also hauled in two of three targets for an additional 10 yards through the air. The Patriots lost by a score of 38-3, falling to 1-3 on the season. Stevenson's relative struggles were the product of an ugly game that saw Mac Jones get benched in the second half. With that said, the Patriots face the Saints next week, which could be a bit more favorable. Stevenson should be treated as a low-end fantasy RB2.
