Bhayshul Tuten vs Michael Carter: Who Should You Start?

This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Bhayshul Tuten finished the 2025 season at 5.6 PPG over 15 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars, while Michael Carter clocked in at 6.3 across 13 appearances for the Tennessee Titans. A 0.7-point gap means any given week could go either way.

With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Bhayshul Tuten ran for 307 yards and 5 touchdowns; Michael Carter posted 333 and 1. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

One scheduling note: Bhayshul Tuten is off Week 12 and Michael Carter Week 5. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.

The Bottom Line

Michael Carter outscored Bhayshul Tuten by 0.7 PPG in 2025 (6.3 to 5.6). That production gap is the baseline, but weekly context shifts the answer. DraftCall analyzes matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and health data to deliver a clear start or sit recommendation backed by real reasoning.
