Who Should I Start? Tyler Scott or Savion Williams

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson and wide receiver Tyler Scott are both healthy scratches for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans. This news offers some insight into the Bears' offensive pecking order this year, with Johnson's absence being particularly interesting. He was a fourth-round pick in 2023 and made a solid impression as a rookie last year, but the Bears will opt for Travis Homer as their third-string running back behind starter D'Andre Swift and backup Khalil Herbert. Scott's absence is less of a surprise but still noteworthy considering he played 17 games in 2023 and is coming off a solid preseason. Regardless of Scott's availability, DJ Moore, Keenan Allen, and Rome Odunze are locked in as the Bears' top three receivers.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Savion Williams (foot) is officially active for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. He was listed as questionable after missing two practices this past week. With Matthew Golden (shoulder, wrist) sidelined, Williams could push to carve out a larger role behind Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, and Dontayvion Wicks. The 24-year-old rookie has been dependable when called upon, catching all 10 of his targets for 78 yards and a touchdown through 10 games. Despite his potentially increased workload on Sunday, Williams is still lower on the depth chart and can be left on waivers in most fantasy leagues. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR99 for Week 12.
