Who Should I Start? Trayveon Williams or Brittain Brown

Los Angeles Chargers running backs Amar Johnson and Trayveon Williams have been elevated from the practice squad ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The two backs will join the roster to serve as depth for Kimani Vidal. Neither player has taken offensive snaps this season, but that might change this weekend. Williams has at least been on the field, but solely playing on special teams. There's a chance they do see a few touches, but it shouldn't be enough to warrant rostering in any fantasy formats. Vidal is going to be the workhorse back, so those two were just brought up as depth.

The Chicago Bears elevated running back Brittain Brown from their practice squad for the team's Week 9 game against the Cincinnati Bengals, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Chicago will be without running backs D'Andre Swift (groin) and Roschon Johnson (back) against Cincinnati. Rookie running back Kyle Monangai is expected to step into a workhorse role in Week 9. Brown and veteran Travis Homer are the most likely candidates to give Monangai a breather when he needs one. Brown has not appeared in an NFL game since 2022, when he played in six games for the Las Vegas Raiders. The 28-year-old exclusively played special teams for Las Vegas, so he's unlikely to take on much of an offensive role for Chicago in Week 9.
