Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs had one rushing touchdown over his first seven games but has 11 touchdowns in his last seven, including nine in his last five games.
Huddle Up: The Packers have been feeding Jacobs early and often, and he has carried the ball at least 18 times in five straight contests. He has the combination of both a high floor and a high ceiling that helps anchor a fantasy lineup.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs ran 26 times for 94 yards and a touchdown and caught all four of his targets for 42 yards in Week 15 versus the Seattle Seahawks. He also lost a fumble.
Huddle Up: The Packers left no doubt what their game plan was on the opening drive, allowing Jacobs to handle the ball nine times on a 10-play scoring drive. He had 46 yards rushing and three catches for 38 yards before the end of the first quarter. Jacobs is the unquestioned centerpiece of the offense right now and has nine touchdowns over his last five outings. Consider him a locked-in RB1 again in Week 16 as the Packers host the New Orleans Saints.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs carried the ball 18 times for 66 yards and three touchdowns against the Detroit Lions on Thursday, Dec. 5.
Huddle Up: For as big of a night as Jacobs had, it arguably should've been even bigger as he caught a touchdown in the fourth quarter that was erased by a questionable offensive pass interference penalty on Christian Watson. If you want to nitpick, this was Jacobs' lowest overall yardage total since he had 48 yards all the way back in Week 3. He's carried a heavy load with three games in 12 days, which could certainly have played a role. Jacobs, who'll get 10 days to recharge before facing Seattle in Week 15, has become a must-start RB1.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (calf) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 4, but is not on the injury report for Week 14.
Huddle Up: Jacobs is dealing with a lingering injury but should not have any limitations this week against the Detroit Lions. He has been one of the top running backs in the NFL this season and should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Updating previous reports, Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (calf) has dealt with this nagging calf injury, and his participation level Wednesday, Dec. 4, will shed light on his status.
Huddle Up: Ian Rapoport said this doesn't seem like a major issue, but obviously, if he's limited Wednesday, that could mean trouble before a Thursday game. Jacobs trails only Saquon Barkley in fantasy points among RBs the last three weeks and would be a midrange RB1 against the Detroit Lions.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (calf) was limited for a second straight day on Tuesday, Dec. 3.
Huddle Up: Jacobs spoke to reporters on Tuesday, which usually indicates that an injured player will play. So is the fact that Jacobs was able to finish Thursday's win over the Miami Dolphins. Although the Detroit Lions are about as brutal of a matchup for running backs as any team in the league, Jacobs should remain in the RB1 conversation in Week 14 with six teams on bye.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (calf) was limited during practice Monday, Dec. 2.
Huddle Up: Jacobs has been on the injury report for several weeks but has not missed any time and should see his normal workload in Week 14. He has been one of the more productive running backs this season and should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs carried the ball 19 times for 43 yards and a touchdown against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday, Nov. 28. He also caught four passes (on four targets) for 74 yards.
Huddle Up: With 117 yards on Thursday night, Jacobs extended his streak of 100-plus-yard outings to five, during which he's scored seven touchdowns. The one game he didn't score came against the Lions in Week 9, though he did rack up 108 yards. In their rematch next Thursday, Jacobs should be viewed as an RB1.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (non-injury) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Nov. 27, and is not on the injury report for Week 13. The Packers did not hold a practice Wednesday, so his practice participation is an estimation.
Huddle Up: Jacobs is coming off an outstanding Week 12 performance and should see plenty of touches again this week against the Miami Dolphins. He is a must-start option in all fantasy leagues.
