Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or Ray Davis

Thursday, December 25, 9:06 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (knee) is off the injury report and is good to go on Saturday night against the Baltimore Ravens. Jacobs was limited all three days of practice this week with a nagging knee injury he suffered in Week 11 against the New York Giants. He played just 40% of snaps in last week's stunning loss to the Chicago Bears, while Emmanuel Wilson played 47%. Jacobs faces a Baltimore Ravens defense that has allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to running backs this season. With the Packers firmly clinched in the postseason, there's a possibility Jacobs could be limited again in Week 17. However, fantasy managers can still trust him in starting lineups for fantasy championships this week.

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis (knee) has logged a week of full practice participation and was viewed as a valuable handcuff coming into Week 17. Fortunately for most fantasy managers, that handcuff is no longer required, as starting running back James Cook is at full health heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Eagles. Davis has put up 120 rushing yards on the year, an additional 51 receiving yards, and one touchdown through the air. With Cook currently leading the race for this year's rushing crown, it seems unlikely that Davis will see much run against an uncharacteristically beatable Eagles front, and he can be dropped wherever roster flexibility is needed for Championship weekend.
