From the episode

None of this is baked into his ADP on these major platforms, which is why, uh, I have him as a fade right now ... he's been banged up a little bit too, and he's kind of, I know that he's, he was a younger prospect, but he is getting up there from a touch perspective.

Fading Jacobs due to injury, workload, and potential suspension risk

JJ Zachariason is fading Josh Jacobs in season-long leagues because his current ADP does not account for potential disciplinary issues or injury concerns. Zachariason also notes that Jacobs is on the wrong side of the career touch curve, making him a risky pick compared to other options.
