Quinshon Judkins vs Zonovan Knight: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between Quinshon Judkins and Zonovan Knight for your lineup, you are not alone. Quinshon Judkins finished the 2025 season at 10.5 PPG for the Cleveland Browns (15 games), and Zonovan Knight averaged 6.8 for the Arizona Cardinals (12 games).
That 3.7-point weekly advantage for Quinshon Judkins is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. Quinshon Judkins ran for 827 yards and 7 touchdowns; Zonovan Knight posted 269 and 4. 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: Quinshon Judkins is off Week 10 and Zonovan Knight Week 11. 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.
