Who Should I Start? Woody Marks or Kaelon Black

Saturday, November 14, 4:08 AM

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks missed practice this week with "mild knee discomfort," but he does not have an injury designation and should be ready to roll for the Texans when they face the Browns on Sunday afternoon. Marks has been the primary running back for the last four games, getting between 17 and 20 touches and producing a consistent 74-85 yards. He hasn't found the end zone in those four games, but he did have a pair of rushing scores earlier this season. Marks' consistent volume makes him a solid starter in 12-team leagues and a flex option in standard-sized formats. The Browns have allowed 115 rushing yards per game to running backs this season and a total of seven running back touchdowns in nine contests. The Texans listed David Montgomery as questionable due to a groin injury that has forced him to the sidelines since Week 5, and if Montgomery does get back in the mix, he could threaten Marks' playing time down the road. He could need some time to return to an involved role even if he's active, though, so Marks remains a startable option as RotoBaller's No. 27 RB coming into Week 10.
