Start or sit in Week 8 PPR leagues?

Start

It’s time to ride with Foreman. While fellow running back Roschon Johnson could return from concussion protocol this week, I still like Foreman to hold his position at the team’s lead back.

Start or sit in Week 8 standard leagues?

Start

Foreman’s a bruising runner, which means that most of his value comes in what he does on the ground, which means he’s worth a start in a standard league. Foreman’s worth a start in standard leagues.
