New York Giants running back Rashad Jennings gave way to Andre Williams against the Tennessee Titans in Week 14. Williams accounted for 131 rushing yards and one score while Jennings had just five rushing yards.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 15: Rashad Jennings, Andre Williams will cut into each other’s work
The Giants might have a committee at tailback. Should fantasy owners use either

Jennings was a game-time decision last week, but he is not on the injury report heading into the game against Washington in Week 15. The Giants will likely split the carries in some capacity, but coach Tom Coughlin has said he expects Jennings to get a full workload this week.
It’s not a great matchup against Washington this week. They are the second-toughest matchup for fantasy running backs. Washington also hasn’t allowed more than 15 points to running back units in PPR leagues in their last four weeks. Plus, the Giants were struggling on the ground before the big game from Williams in Week 14.
Fantasy impact: Despite what the Giants are saying about Jennings getting the carries, there is just too much risk here. Jennings is a flex guy while Williams should be on almost all benches.
