Yahoo Fantasy Football - Josh & Hayden on Josh Jacobs

RB13 ranking vs. 31st-ranked Panthers D; workload ramping to 14-15 carries per game.

Jacobs is ranked RB13 facing the Panthers' 31st-ranked rushing defense (by DBA, EPA, PFF grade). Panthers allow 153 rushing yards per game and 26.7 half-PPR points to running backs; giving Jacobs 75% of that workload projects favorably. The team total is 25.5 points at home on Thursday night. Jacobs had a touchdown and a drop in recent action but is expected to see his workload ramp up; he's projected to hit 14-15 carries per game going forward, with reduced pass-catching volume compared to recent weeks. Jacobs was out there for a bunch of receptions and Marshon Lloyd was mixing in on the ground, but Jacobs' workload is expected to increase.
