Derrick Henry or Josh Jacobs: Who should I start in Week 11 Fantasy Football?

The running back position is arguably the most important in fantasy football. Derrick Henry and Josh Jacobs are two of the best running backs. But, in Week 11, who is the better option?

Is Derrick Henry a good fantasy pick?

Derrick Henry is a great fantasy option every week he plays.

That's because Henry gets plenty of carries every week, making him a great option. Henry has gotten at least 15+ carries in every game but one.

The Ravens' star running back has also scored a touchdown in every game but one and has three games of two rushing touchdowns.

Even though the Pittsburgh Steelers have a good defense, Henry is still a great fantasy option in Week 11.

Is Josh Jacobs a good fantasy pick?

Josh Jacobs is a good fantasy pick in Week 11.

The Green Bay Packers are coming off a bye week, allowing Jacobs to get healthy and be fresh for this game.

The Packers are up against the Chicago Bears, who have struggled defensively this season. The Bears are allowing 133 rushing yards per game so Jacobs should be able to have success here.
