Should I start Nicholas Singleton or Jonathon Brooks in Week 9?

Updated Nov 3, 12:51 AM ET.

Start Jonathon Brooks: 25 percent of the snaps and 21 percent of the carries over their last 2 games, against Nicholas Singleton's 12 percent of the snaps and 13 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.
