Who Should I Start? Woody Marks or Ollie Gordon II

Friday, October 31, 9:02 PM

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks (calf) was limited in practice this week but does not have an injury designation for Week 9's matchup against the Broncos. Marks had a massive breakthrough performance in Week 4 with 69 rushing yards, 50 receiving yards, and a pair of touchdowns. He took a back seat to Nick Chubb in Week 5's blowout win, but he has been productive in an even timeshare with Chubb in the last two weeks. Marks can produce excellent receiving yards and PPR production when he's at his best, and has scored two of his touchdowns through the air. Last week, he also had one of his best rushing games with 62 rushing yards on his 11 carries. Marks has a tough matchup against the Broncos this week, but he's still the RB25, showing he's a solid RB3 or flex option even against the strong Denver defense.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's divisional showdown with the Bills after being limited in practice all week. The injury occurred last Thursday against Baltimore, but even the extra time hasn't helped him be 100%. He was starting to get more consistent work behind De'Von Achane, including a 10-carry, 46-yard performance in Week 8 against Atlanta. On the season, Gordon II has logged 122 rushing yards and 30 receiving yards while scoring a pair of touchdowns. If he's limited or out, Jaylen Wright would likely take over as Miami's primary backup running back. Even if he's healthy, he'll be a touchdown-dependent flier play behind workhorse De'Von Achane. He's the No. 48 RB this week, so he shouldn't be started in all but the deepest of formats.
