Week 9 Ollie Gordon II Fantasy Start or Sit 2026

Should you start or sit Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II in Week 9 against the Detroit Lions? PFN's Max Chadwick breaks down Gordon's fantasy football outlook after he emerged as Miami's leading running back following De'Von Achane's season-ending ACL injury. Gordon has provided valuable fantasy production since taking over the backfield, finishing among the top 17 running backs in four of his previous five games. However, he struggled against the New England Patriots in Week 8, recording just 6.9 fantasy points. Now Miami faces a Detroit Lions defense that has been particularly effective at limiting opposing fantasy running backs despite its overall defensive struggles. Can Gordon rebound against a difficult matchup? Will his workload continue to provide reliable fantasy value? Chadwick examines PFN's Week 9 rankings, projections, and the matchup against Detroit to help fantasy managers make their lineup decisions.
