Should I start Brian Robinson Jr. or Tommy Tremble in Week 9?

Updated Nov 4, 7:16 AM ET.

Start Tommy Tremble: 60 percent of the snaps and 9 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Brian Robinson Jr.'s 27 percent of the snaps and 32 percent of the carries. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.

The market-based projections
