Who Should I Start? Emanuel Wilson or Dylan Laube

Friday, October 17, 5:18 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson has been solidly involved in the Packers' offense in a backup capacity and will retain that role when Green Bay heads to Arizona to face the Cardinals in Week 7. With Josh Jacobs (illness/calf) listed on the injury report as questionable, it's fair to expect that Wilson will see an uptick in work in Week 7. Jacobs is expected to get the bulk of the work in any game he is playing, but managing his workload may be in the cards for the Packers this week. Wilson is the clear contingent running back for Green Bay in case something happens to Jacobs. Even then, Wilson shouldn't be started or rostered in all but the deepest of leagues this week.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Dylan Laube could be in line for a slight uptick in playing time this week against the Washington Commanders. Laube logged just 18% of the offensive snaps in the Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers but managed to catch two passes for 17 yards, flashing the receiving skills that made him a standout in college. Head coach Pete Carroll suggested the team may work him in more on offense after limiting him almost exclusively to special teams in Week 1. For now, Laube remains buried on the depth chart behind Ashton Jeanty and Zamir White, leaving him without any immediate fantasy value. Still, the fact that the Raiders are looking to carve out a role for him in the passing game is a positive sign for his long-term outlook.
