Should I start Cyrus Allen or Tank Dell in Week 8?

Updated Oct 27, 6:31 PM ET.

Latest

  • : Tank Dell: IR to Questionable (Knee - ACL + MCL, Surgery) (Sleeper injury feed)

Start Tank Dell: 23 percent of the snaps and 4 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Cyrus Allen's 17 percent of the snaps and 6 percent of the targets. 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.
