Who Should I Start? Zack Moss or Jaylen Warren

Thursday, November 7, 10:34 AM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Zack Moss (neck) will meet with neck specialist Dr. Robert Watkins and is likely to avoid surgery. It's good news for Moss, but he's already been placed on Injured Reserve and will miss the rest of the 2024 season after injuring his next in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He will be shut down for the next two months. In a best-case scenario, the 26-year-old might be able to return if the Bengals make the postseason and make a deep run. In his first year in Cincy, Moss finishes with 74 carries for 242 yards (career-low-tying 3.3 yards per carry) and two touchdowns while snagging 23 of his 27 targets for 187 more yards and a touchdown. The Bengals quickly replaced Moss by trading for Bears RB Khalil Herbert, who should immediately serve as the No. 2 behind Chase Brown, possibly as early as Thursday night against the division-rival Baltimore Ravens.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren handled 11 carries for 45 yards and a touchdown while adding three receptions for 19 yards on six targets in a Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Not only did Warren find the end zone for the first time in 2024, but he also took the field for a season-high 57% of snaps. He ran hard throughout the contest and fought to gain extra yardage numerous times. The third-year pro has likely earned himself a larger role in the offense and could push for a 50-50 split with Najee Harris. He'll look to continue trending positively in a Week 13 meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals.
