Should I start Justice Hill or Javonte Williams in Week 8?
Updated Oct 28, 1:18 AM ET. Week 9 answers post Tuesday.
Start Javonte Williams: 74 percent of the snaps and 73 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Justice Hill's 45 percent of the snaps and 8 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.
