Josh Jacobs News
Friday, April 10, 5:12 AM
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is 28 years old, and after an RB12 finish in 2025, he has fallen to RB19 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings. Jacobs spent the final weeks of the season battling through a knee injury sustained in Week 11, and while he missed only two games in total, his play was clearly impacted, as he scored only three of his 14 total touchdowns from that point on. As Jacobs nears 30, health and durability will rightfully become a growing part of his profile, but prior to the injury, he was RB5 on the season. The Packers lost primary backup Emanuel Wilson to free agency, and outside of spending a top 100 pick at the position, they are unlikely to find anything more than replacement-level value in an underwhelming draft class. With Matt LaFleur showing a willingness to lean heavily on his lead back, Jacobs could represent a smart buy-low for dynasty contenders.

Khalil Herbert News
Thursday, October 2, 12:22 PM
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the New York Jets have signed running back Khalil Herbert to an undisclosed contract. Per Rapoport, the team placed running back Braelon Allen (knee) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. The Virginia Tech product was recently signed to Seattle's practice squad, but he'll now add depth in New York's backfield. With Allen out, and backfield mate Kene Nwangwu's (hamstring) status up in the air, it's possible that Herbert will see work right away behind starter Breece Hall and backup Isaiah Davis. The 27-year-old doesn't figure to be slated for a fantasy-relevant role, but he's at least on the deep handcuff radar in case the assets in front of him were to miss any time. The Jets will take on the Dallas Cowboys in Week 5.
