Who should I start for Week 14? Fantasy football outlooks for Isiah Pacheco, Tony Pollard, Gus Edwards. Our expert fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks.
The running back position is an important one to nail in fantasy football. It's generally harder to find great running backs late in drafts, and waiver pickups that work out season-long are a rarity.
So when you have RBs that are in bad situations, have limited playing time due to injury, or haven't played well but are looking at an expanded role moving forward, it can be difficult to make the right start-sit decisions.
So let's break down three running backs and whether you should start or sit them in Week 14.
Should I Start Isiah Pacheco for Fantasy Football?
Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco returned for his first game back from injury in Week 13. Unfortunately, he hardly got any work. He only carried the ball seven times for 44 yards and caught one pass for five yards. The good news is that he looked far better than backfield mate Kareem Hunt.
Expect Isiah Pacheco's usage to ramp up in the coming weeks.

Players coming back from broken legs don't get a full workload in their first game back, typically. So this shouldn't have been a surprise. He'll have more volume this week, and he looked excellent in his return, ripping off a signature big run.
I am so excited to have Isiah Pacheco back! 😤🔥pic.twitter.com/LQwhqIrLJr

Start him in Week 14.
Should I Start Tony Pollard for Fantasy Football?
You should always start Pollard. The unfortunate truth about good players on bad teams is that sometimes they underperform on the stat sheets.
Tony Pollard saw 12 opportunities and handled 73% percent of the snaps in week 13, totaling 68 scoreless yards.
Do you trust him in week 14 against the #Duuuval Jags?

The juice he lost due to his 2022 leg injury is fully back now. He'll play the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14, who have a terrible defense. Start him.
Should I Start Gus Edwards for Fantasy Football?
Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is technically the top RB on his team's depth chart, but he's been a bad fantasy option this season, and it's hard to see that changing unless he gets lucky with touchdowns. He simply is not involved much in the receiving game and hasn't been efficient.
Anyone playing Gus Edwards just win on this touchdown?!? pic.twitter.com/5gEGwJ4KfQ

The play above is Edwards' only touchdown of the season. He's been targeted a total of three times, catching one pass for one yard. He has zero games of double-digit PPR fantasy points -- even in the game he scored in, he totaled nine carries for 11 yards. There is no reason to start him unless you're desperate for help at the RB position. He's better off on the bench.
