Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or DeVonta Smith

Sunday, November 24, 10:08 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs had his best game as a Packer as he rumbled for three touchdowns in the Packers' 38-10 drubbing over the San Francisco 49ers. Jacobs was a fixture of the 49ers' second level as he ripped off multiple runs of 10-plus yards and ended up with 106 rushing yards on 26 carries. Scoring all three touchdowns from one yard out in the second, third, and fourth quarters, Jacobs was the finisher and was the key part of the Packers' huge win. After this huge game where he no doubt delighted Packers fans and fantasy managers alike, Jacobs will set his sights on the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving. Jacobs will be a locked-in RB1 against Miami in that matchup on Thursday night.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's tilt against the Los Angeles Rams, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. The Alabama product has been unable to practice all week and will set his sights on returning next week to face the Baltimore Ravens. Smith has had two modest showings over the past two games but eclipsed 15.0 PPR points in six games this season. As a result, fantasy managers should expect A.J. Brown to see a heavy target share. In addition, tight end Dallas Goedert should be viewed as a solid TE1 in all formats, as he should also be in store for a significant target increase. Lastly, wide receiver Jahan Dotson should also see an increase in snaps but only be viewed as a high-risk option in DFS formats.
