Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or Kenneth Walker III

Sunday, November 23, 11:01 AM

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (knee) is inactive for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Minnesota Vikings, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL.com. Jacobs was listed as questionable and deemed to be a true game-time decision on Sunday morning. In the end, he won't be able to suit up for a key divisional battle at home. Jacobs, who first suffered the injury during the second quarter of last week's game against the New York Giants, will be replaced in the first-team offense by Emanuel Wilson. Wilson led the Packers' backfield after Jacobs departed last Sunday, tallying 40 rushing yards, nine receiving yards, and one touchdown through the final three quarters. This week, he ranks as a fringe top-24 running back in fantasy football. Chris Brooks and Pierre Strong Jr. should also earn some touches in their respective depth roles.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (glute) is officially active for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the Tennessee Titans. He had been listed as questionable after popping up on the injury report as a limited participant this past Friday. Despite the last-minute injury scare, Walker will suit up as the Seahawks' primary back. He's coming off an impressive game against the Los Angeles Rams in which he had 16 carries for 67 rushing yards and one touchdown, plus three catches for an additional 44 receiving yards. Amid a relatively inconsistent campaign in which he has shared the workload with Zach Charbonnet, Walker finds himself as the overall RB23 in fantasy scoring this season. He has a great opportunity to strengthen his fantasy value against a Titans defense that has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025. Walker ranks as the overall RB18 in RotoBaller's Week 12 fantasy rankings.
