Who Should I Start? TreVeyon Henderson or Ashton Jeanty

Saturday, December 27, 6:59 PM

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson (concussion) no longer carries an injury designation into Sunday's Week 17 matchup against the New York Jets. Henderson has cleared concussion protocol after getting banged up during last week's game against the Baltimore Ravens. The rookie running back will continue splitting up the backfield duties with Rhamondre Stevenson. Henderson has looked like the much better option in recent weeks and figures to have a significant role given the Pats' offensive injuries. The Pats' rookie running back should offer top-12 fantasy value against the struggling Jets defense. Fantasy managers can safely get him into their lineups with Henderson clearing concussion protocol.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie running back Ashton Jeanty was held to single-digit fantasy points in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the New York Giants in Week 17. Jeanty has been held to 10 or fewer fantasy points in three of his last four games, disappointing fantasy managers in the playoffs. Despite the great matchup, he had a relatively inefficient day, turning his 16 rush attempts into 60 yards and corralling both of his targets for just 13 yards. The rookie ball carrier was the Raiders' workhorse back, with Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) ruled inactive before gametime, but he did cede some third-down snaps to running back Zamir White in the second half. The Las Vegas Raiders will host the reeling Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18, whose defense is a top-10 matchup for opposing running backs. Jeanty still has big play potential and, as the Raiders' bell cow back, should continue to see starting lineups in Week 18.
