Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or Chris Olave

Tuesday, October 21, 2:14 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs was on the injury report with an illness and a calf injury in Week 7 and was a true game-time decision for the Packers in their game against the Arizona Cardinals. Despite those ailments, Jacobs still put up 58 yards from scrimmage and scored two touchdowns in the Packers' win over Arizona. Despite Jacobs averaging just 3.7 yards per carry this season, he's scored eight touchdowns on the ground and caught 16 passes for 179 yards through the air this season to help balance out the lack of efficiency on the ground. Jacobs is currently the RB7 on the season, averaging over 20 fantasy points per game, so we can't nitpick too much as long as he's a dominant RB1 for fantasy. The Packers face the Steelers in Week 8, where Jacobs remains locked in as a fantasy RB1.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (ankle) missed practice on Wednesday with an ankle injury that he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears, a source told Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. However, he's expected to play on Sunday when the team hosts the visiting Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Olave apparently injured his ankle in last Sunday's loss but still managed to play 84% of the offensive snaps while dominating for fantasy managers with five catches for 98 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets. The 25-year-old former first-rounder is getting a maintenance day on Wednesday and should return to practice later this week and be fine to suit up against the division-rival Bucs this weekend. Olave has exactly 98 yards in each of the last two weeks and has been a must-start in fantasy lineups despite working with quarterback Spencer Rattler this year.
