Josh Jacobs at the Center of Packers' Offense Again in High-Scoring Tie

Monday, September 29, 12:18 AM

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs rushed for 86 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries during Sunday's Week 4 tie with the Dallas Cowboys. He also caught all four of his targets for an additional 71 receiving yards. Jacobs briefly exited with an injury but was on the field for most of the game, keeping the score close and ultimately helping the Packers get in position to tie the game as overtime ended. He now has the sixth-most fantasy points among running backs and will continue to rank as a fringe RB1 on the other side of Green Bay's bye week.

Ashton Jeanty Explodes for Three Touchdowns in Loss

Sunday, September 28, 8:25 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty rushed for 138 yards and one touchdown on 21 carries during Sunday's Week 4 loss to the Chicago Bears. He also caught two passes for 17 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns. The rookie set several career-bests in his fourth NFL game, including most carries, most rushing yards, most yards per carry, most receiving yards, and most touchdowns. After three relatively underwhelming weeks, it was exciting to see things finally click for Jeanty, who was regarded as one of the top running back prospects of this decade. He'll rank as an RB2 with RB1 upside heading into Week 5 against the Indianapolis Colts.
