Who Should I Start? Zach Charbonnet or Jayden Daniels

Friday, November 14, 5:29 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet is running into a tough matchup in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are No. 2 against opposing running backs in fantasy. This defensive front simply does not allow running backs to get loose. Charbonnet has been a more efficient runner of late. He is coming off a game in which he ran for 5.93 yards per carry. However, Charbonnet's lack of passing game usage continues to be concerning. He has just eight targets on the season. Luckily, Charbonnet has scored six touchdowns, resulting in several flex or RB2 weeks. With the Seahawks' offense often at or near the goal line, Charbonnet's chances to score remain high on a weekly basis. In Week 11, it will be difficult to count on a touchdown from Charbonnet. With the Rams likely to keep the Seahawks out of scoring position more often than not, you could end up with a serious dud performance from the third-year pro. As such, Charbonnet should remain on your bench this week.

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) is still expected to return to the starting lineup once doctors clear him from his elbow injury, but there has been external debate about whether it makes sense to bring Daniels back at all this year after the team has lost six games in a row to drop to 3-8, according to ESPN's Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler. Sources have said that Daniels could return as early as Week 13 against the Denver Broncos after their bye week, but the team has loosely braced for an absence of five to six weeks just in case. The team's current standings and the fact that it's been an injury-plagued year for the second-year signal-caller could end up being enough to persuade the Commanders to pull the plug on Daniels for the rest of 2025. Washington could very well make a final decision on Daniels' future for this year during this week's bye.
