Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs had his best game of the season, rushing for 58 yards and a touchdown in the Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Jacobs' rushing yardage was his second-most of the year, and he was also heavily involved in the passing game. With Jimmy Garoppolo out with a concussion, the Raiders started rookie quarterback Aidan O'Connell. O'Connell targeted Jacobs 11 times for eight receptions and 81 yards. Seeing Jacobs and the Raiders finally get the run game moving was encouraging. Despite his eight catches, Jacobs still has zero career receiving touchdowns. The Raiders running back has a Week 5 matchup with the Green Bay Packers, who just gave up 121 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns to David Montgomery. Fantasy managers should feel confident starting Jacobs as a low-end RB1 in their lineups moving forward.

Houston Texans running back Devin Singletary signed a one-year deal with the team this offseason and will make his season debut against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1. Singletary will likely backup young running back Dameon Pierce this year. But the veteran's exact role remains to be seen. He could be used more in the passing game, as the running back is coming off three consecutive seasons of 35-plus catches with the Buffalo Bills. With an unknown role in Week 1, Singletary should only be started in deeper formats.
