Should You Start or Sit Monangai in Week 10?
D’Andre Swift missed last week with a groin injury and Roschon Johnson was also sidelined, putting Kyle Monangai in position to build on an expanding role and really live up to the greatness that was bestowed upon him at birth by way of his first name.
Yeah, I’d say he capitalized.
He obviously benefited from the Cincinnati matchup, but 26 carries, 22 routes, and eight red zone touches later, the man has worked himself into the weekly plan.
This situation gets complicated should Swift return (4.6 yards per carry this season with a TD in each of his past four games), but it’s clear that Ben Johnson has his finger on the pulse of this backfield and that has me thinking that both could produce lineup-worthy numbers.
If both play, I’ll defer to the veteran because of how well he was running. That said, Monangai would still crack my top 30 in that world and should he walk back into the RB1 role, he’d flirt with my top 15 at the position against a defense that has allowed 25+ PPR points to a RB four times this season.
