Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or Ray Davis

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (knee) has no injury designation for Thursday's divisional clash against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving and is good to go, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Jacobs was held out of the Week 12 win over the Minnesota Vikings after suffering a minor knee contusion in the Week 11 win over the New York Giants. The 27-year-old star RB is back after a one-game absence and will be looking to start a new touchdown streak. He has 11 rushing touchdowns in 10 games played this year and entered Week 11 with touchdowns in six straight games before injuring his knee. In the Week 1 win over Detroit, Jacobs had 19 carries for 66 yards and one touchdown. Even though backup Emanuel Wilson had over 100 rushing yards and two scores last week, all signs point to Jacobs returning to his workhorse role in Detroit.

After an encouraging rookie season in 2024, Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis has seen his role in his team's offense decline significantly so far in 2025. Through nine games, Davis has logged just 24 carries for 44 yards. The 26-year-old logged seven offensive snaps in Buffalo's Week 10 loss to Miami and has played double-digit snaps in only three games this season. With Bills running backs James Cook and Ty Johnson both healthy and ready to go for the team's Week 11 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, there's not much reason for fantasy managers to think Davis' role will be significantly different. Davis maintains some value as a handcuff option for Cook, but he's not worth starting in fantasy in Week 11.
