Should I start Chris Brooks or Zonovan Knight in Week 7?
Updated Oct 20, 7:01 PM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Chris Brooks: 35 percent of the snaps and 16 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Zonovan Knight's 21 percent of the snaps and 26 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.
