Zonovan Knight, RB, Arizona Cardinals
The following two backs aren’t going to fetch you much compensation, but are worth moving if you have enough depth not to be desperate in the coming weeks. With the Arizona Cardinals rotating backs in the absence of their two starters, James Conner and Trey Benson, Zonovan Knight has taken on the bulk of goal-line work.
There is a chance he could keep that role beyond Benson’s return, but that’s far from guaranteed. Benson was a limited participant in practice all last week and could well make his return in Week 13.
Even without Benson, though, the Cardinals face the Buccaneers, the Rams, and the Houston Texans in the next three weeks, so Knight is, at best, a true desperation flex. The runner has totaled 27.7 PPR points over his last two games, and that should be enough to see you get something for him in a trade.
Aaron Jones Sr., RB, Minnesota Vikings
From a role perspective, it would appear that we have clarity in Minnesota and that’s a nice first step. Aaron Jones was handed the ball on their first two plays in Lambeau last weekend and played ahead of Jordan Mason without much hesitation throughout:
Jones: 65.9% snaps, 12 touches, 8.7 points
Mason: 27.3% snaps, 8 touches, 4.2 points
The offensive environment as a whole, however, is a different conversation. For just the second time this season, Jones averaged under a yard per carry before contact, something that I tie directly back to J.J. McCarthy and his inability to punish defenses for crowding the line of scrimmage.
I’m not overly optimistic we see that change over the next month and especially not in this matchup. Even as the RB1 in this offense, Jones has just one game this season with double digit carries and that makes him beholden to work in the passing game to give us any value whatsoever.
He’s caught exactly three passes in three straight games and while that’s nice, there’s not nearly enough upside attached to those targets to make him a safe play in any format.
Should You Start or Sit Harvey in Week 13?
I’m willing to write off Week 11 and move forward with the high levels of optimism/excitement we had for RJ Harvey upon first learning that the role was his (JK Dobbins’ foot injury has him sitting on IR).
Against the Chiefs, he ran for just 30 yards on 11 carries and ceded the short touchdown to Jaleel McLaughlin. Both running backs got work on the first drive of the game and Denver landed a season-defining upset over the divisional rival. It wasn’t a great first impression for Harvey as the lead, but I think that game was unique in that the Broncos treated it like a playoff game and didn’t want the rookie to feel too much pressure with the expanded role.
Maybe I’m wrong.
Sean Payton likes versatility and I think the division of carries is here to stay, but I do think Harvey is the clear RB1 and I expect, with a week off to design to his strengths, we see more of a commitment to him in this favorable spot.
Harvey has multiple receptions in seven of his past nine games and asking him to pair a 13-16 carry role with that baseline is reasonable given the up-and-down nature of this passing game.
If that’s the role he assumes, we are talking about a safe RB2 with plenty of upside for more. The Commanders are a below average defense in terms of both pre and post contact numbers in the run game to opposing running backs, a matchup that gives this team a good chance to build the confidence of their first-year back.
Dobbins, a veteran with a resume filled with injuries, was being handed the ball 15.3 times per game. With time, I’d assume that Harvey fills a similar role sooner than later and works into lineup lock status by the time the fantasy postseason is upon us.
