Losing a player to an injury is tough. But how much easier is it when that player returns? Will they get their normal reps, or is limited usage and/or an in-game re-injury too big of a risk?
De'Von Achane, Jordan Mason, Rachaad White, Aaron Jones, . . . even Nick Chubb, who's expected to make his 2024 debut after more than a year on the shelf. There are no obvious right answers. If we have a lot to choose from, maybe we play it safe. But most of us don't have three or four top-24-caliber RBs. We go for broke because, frankly, someone like Chubb probably has a better boom than, say, Zack Moss. But who knows.
In the meantime, keep an eye on Kyren Williams and the previously mentioned Jones (if active). The Rams and Vikings will face off on Thursday. If today Kyren and Jones get massive work (unlikely for Jones), then Blake Corum and/or Ty Chandler (or even Cam Akers) might be deep-league-streamable later this week.
Am around most of this morning to bounce things around. Thanks to those of you who also share your two cents when folks have questions. And good luck today.
