Wild Card: Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Running Backs

Start ‘Em, Sit 'Em is the ultimate look at the best and worst matchups based on a PPR scoring system in fantasy football.

Instead, I'll look at the players you have questions about who could exceed or fail to meet expectations at each position. For all of your final fantasy lineup decisions, be sure to check out my weekly player rankings which will be updated daily throughout the 2022 NFL season.

Their defense allowed 19 total touchdowns and the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing running backs, which could turn into a high-scoring affair in Duval County. I like Etienne to produce this weekend.
