Who Should I Start? Travis Homer or Zavier Scott

Sunday, October 19, 11:41 AM

Chicago Bears running back Travis Homer (calf) is officially active for Sunday's Week 7 contest against the New Orleans Saints. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to play after being a full participant in practice all week long. The veteran running back is making his season debut this week, but he'll likely be relegated to a role on special teams. After all, D'Andre Swift has a firm hold on the lead-back role while Kyle Monangai and Roschon Johnson are steady depth options. Fantasy managers should leave Homer on waivers in all formats.

Minnesota Vikings running back Zavier Scott suffered an injury to his right wrist in Week 7's loss to the Eagles. Scott handled four carries for four yards and added a catch for two yards in the game, and appears to have banged up his wrist at some point during the game. Scott has served as the primary backup to Jordan Mason while Aaron Jones (hamstring) is on injured reserve. The severity of Scott's injury is unclear at the moment, but more updates should follow in the coming days.
