Both Royals and Cyrus Allen flashed in August and now each will seemingly have the opportunity to start with Rashee Rice (hamstring) and Tyquan Thornton (ankle, IR) out of the picture. Of course, this is also a passing game that is fine keeping multiple tight ends and running backs involved as well. Both youngsters are more so deep league fliers at this point with the expectation being that Rice will be back sooner than later. I lean Royals this week due to the fact that he's been listed as Rice's direct backup this season.
