Video: Everything You Need to Know Before Week 8 Fantasy Football (Rookie Report)
Josh Jacobs essentially is playing in the Marshawn Lloyd role... We have his usage 54% of the snaps, 11 for 36 rushing... he'll be a good high-end RB2, right? But wherever you kind of have that tier of guys from like Bucky Irving, Chuba Hubard, Basil Tuin, uh DeAndre Swift, any of those guys, Josh Jacobs slots right in there.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Josh Jacobs projects as high-end RB2 with snap share ramping to 70%.

Josh Jacobs returned to the NFL and is playing in the Marshawn Lloyd role; he posted 54% snap share, 11 carries for 36 yards, and a receiving touchdown in his first game back. The source projects him as a high-end RB2 tier alongside Bucky Irving, Chuba Hubbard, Basil Tuin, and DeAndre Swift, expecting snap share to ramp up to around 70%. The Packers' pass-heavy offense (4% to 6.4% pass over expectation) should not diminish his role, and while his receiving touchdown should not be banked on (only 3 career receiving TDs), his rushing volume and snap share provide solid RB2 floor.
