Should You Start or Sit Jaydon Blue in Week 8?
Jaydon Blue doubled his season carry total last week against the Commanders and earned his first professional target, but his usage was more to get Javonte Williams a breather than a chance to carve out his own niche.
The rookie isn’t a must-hold, but he’s also not a must-cut. My instinct says that, if Williams were to go down, this offense would double and triple down on the passing game as opposed to give Blue the vacated volume.
That said, he’s still just one injury away from the lead role in an offense that needs to put points on the board to keep this team competitive.
