Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or Bijan Robinson

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is off the injury report for the first time since Week 11, after a late-season knee injury limited his impact down the stretch. After being rested for the team's Week 18 season finale, Jacobs recently told reporters that he's feeling better than he has in six weeks, and if he can regain the burst that he came out of the gates with, he figures to be an impactful player in fantasy playoff leagues. Through the first ten weeks of 2025, Jacobs was on a full-season pace of nearly 1,600 yards from scrimmage and over 20 touchdowns. Green Bay opens the playoffs on the road against a Bears team with whom they split the season series, and Jacobs is RotoBaller's RB7 for the first week of playoff fantasy leagues.

The Athletic's Josh Kendall writes that it's clear from new head coach Kevin Stefanski's past that running back Bijan Robinson can "expect his heavy workload to continue" in 2026. Kendall even thinks that Robinson's workload could increase as he enters his fourth year in the NFL. The 23-year-old led the league in scrimmage yards (2,298) in 2025, putting him firmly in the running for the Offensive Player of the Year award. Robinson has been the only player in the league with more than 1,000 combined rushes and receptions since he was drafted eighth overall in 2023. He finished behind only Christian McCaffrey and Jonathan Taylor in half-PPR points last season, carrying the ball 287 times for 1,478 yards and seven touchdowns. Robinson added 79 receptions for 820 yards and four more TDs on 103 targets over 17 games. There's an argument to be made for Robinson being the No. 1 overall pick in 2026 fantasy football drafts.
