Who Should I Start? Trey Benson or Ollie Gordon II

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) remains on injured reserve for at least another two weeks as the Cards attempt to make do with a committee ahead of Week 7 against Green Bay. The Florida State product was a surprising addition to injured reserve after playing more than half of the Cards' Week 4 game against Seattle, though the team expects him to return this season. The team activated running back D'Ernest Johnson this week and has previously featured a rotation that has included Michael Carter, Emari Demercado, and Bam Knight. From a fantasy perspective, it's been tough to rely upon any of them with the team cycling through so many players.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II hasn't been able to break through yet in his rookie season, but he does continue to get some work each week. Coming into Week 8's game against the Falcons, Gordon has played around 25% of snaps over the last few weeks. He has multiple carries in each of the last five weeks, dating back to his one game with a touchdown against the Bills. He has 25 carries over his last five games, but he has only been able to manage 58 rushing yards. He's added a few catches as well, but he only has seven receiving yards all year. Gordon's low volume and the fact that Jaylen Wright is rumored to be more involved this week make Gordon an extremely high-risk play this week. He's the No. 48 RB in RotoBaller's rankings this week, meaning he shouldn't be a starter in most formats even though he does get some work.
