Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or RJ Harvey

Sunday, October 25, 4:32 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs rushed for 36 yards on 11 carries during Sunday's Week 7 loss against the Detroit Lions. He also caught five of his seven targets for an additional 55 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown. Jacobs missed the first six weeks of the season due to his placement on the commissioner's exempt list, so Sunday represented his 2026 season debut. Although he was relatively inefficient on the ground, he handled far more carries than the running backs who filled in for Jacobs while he was sidelined. Plus, he more than made up for his modest rushing output with a huge impact in the passing game. Jacobs, 28, is a dual-threat back who has proven that he can be a consistent high-end RB2 in fantasy football. He should continue to be started in all fantasy leagues next week against the Carolina Panthers, who just let the Buccaneers' running backs explode for 246 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns on Sunday afternoon.
