Emanuel Wilson Cedes Snaps to Backup in Loss to Panthers

Monday, November 3, 11:27 AM

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson rushed six times for 16 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Carolina Panthers. He gained an additional yard on 1-of-2 receiving. The third-year pro was coming off a season-high in touches (14) and yards (87), but saw his work decline back to baseline while also ceding snaps to backfield mate Chris Brooks. Coincidentally, the latter didn't see a carry, although he was more effective on his two targets (2/24), and played on double-digit snaps for the second time in 2025. Wilson figures to retain his role as the handcuff to own in Green Bay. However, Sunday was a stark reminder that, when he's fully healthy, this is the Josh Jacobs show. There's room for Wilson's role to expand, considering Jacobs has been under 60% of snaps in three straight contests. Still, he won't provide much standalone value unless the veteran's calf issue lingers.
