Fred Jackson cleared, but Spiller will start
C.J. Spiller - RB - Buffalo Bills
Nov. 21, 2012 - 1:20 PM ET

Even though Fred Jackson (concussion) has been cleared, C.J. Spiller will start Sunday's game against the Colts.

At long last, coach Chan Gailey has realized that Spiller gives his team the best chance to win. "C.J. will start, but we're still going to play Fred," said Gailey. "It takes two. It does. So Fred will get quite a few snaps, but C.J. will start and get the majority of the snaps." Look for most of Jackson's reps to come in short-yardage situations or when Spiller is gassed. The revelation leaves Spiller as a clear-cut RB1 with upside and F-Jax as a mere flex play.
