Who Should I Start? Trey Benson or Ollie Gordon II

Thursday, November 27, 1:36 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) wasn't present at Thursday's practice. Benson was limited on Wednesday and not spotted for Thursday's session. The 23-year-old has not played since suffering a knee injury in Week 4. It's unclear if Benson was given a maintenance day, but fantasy managers should continue to monitor the situation. He will have one more day to practice ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Emari Demercado (ankle) was also not spotted at practice. If Benson and Demercado are unable to go in Week 13, look for Bam Knight and Michael Carter to lead Arizona's backfield once again. If active, Benson is considered a FLEX play in the first game back since Week 4 and is ranked 36th among all running backs heading into this week.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II could see a larger role in this rushing attack coming out of the bye week. In Week 11, Gordon rushed the ball nine times for 45 yards and scored a touchdown in the win over the Washington Commanders. The rookie back saw a season-high 39 percent of the offensive snaps during that contest. His nine touches on the ground also tied for the second-most Gordon has seen this season. The rookie back has proven to be a viable option when given the chances in this offense. He could see an expanded role in the offense when the Dolphins take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 13. The 21-year-old could be worth a stash in deep leagues heading into this matchup.
