Who Should I Start? Travis Homer or Bam Knight

Sunday, November 2, 9:17 AM

Chicago Bears running back Travis Homer is expected to operate as the backup to Kyle Monangai after the team ruled out D'Andre Swift (groin) and Roschon Johnson (back). Homer spent the first six weeks of the season on injured reserve, and he has not yet registered an offensive snap in his two games since returning. He has played exclusively on special teams so far, but that should change this week. Not only will he handle some offensive snaps, but he'll likely see at least a handful of touches as the Bears look to take some of the workload off Monangai. It's unlikely we'll see Homer have fantasy relevance this week, but we'll certainly still hear his name called from time to time.

According to Darren Urban of the team, Arizona Cardinals running back Bam Knight (ankle) will not return to Week 15's road outing with the Houston Texans. Knight was initially deemed questionable to re-enter the game after he was carted off early on with an ankle injury. However, he'll now miss the remainder of the contest after recording a loss of two yards on his lone carry. Backfield mate Michael Carter has taken over lead rushing duties in the 24-year-old's stead, and he figures to get the bulk of the work this afternoon, considering teammate Emari Demercado entered the game with an ankle issue of his own. Depending on the severity of Knight's ailment, Carter could be a hot waiver add over the week ahead.
