Who Should I Start? Josh Jacobs or Zach Charbonnet

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (knee) is off the injury report following a full practice session on Friday, and he'll be good to go for the Packers' Week 14 matchup with the Chicago Bears. Jacobs has been an awesome fantasy option this season, but last week was one of his least-productive fantasy outings with just 10.1 fantasy points. Week 13 marks just the second game in which Jacobs played the full game and didn't get in the end zone. That's how seemingly automatic Jacobs has been this season, and as the engine of the Packers' offense, Jacobs should be in a good position to do well against a middle-of-the-road Bears' run defense. Jacobs is a locked-in RB1 fantasy option in Week 14.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet has been a touchdown machine this season. He has a great chance to score in Week 14 against an Atlanta Falcons defense that is No. 24 against opposing running backs in fantasy. The Seahawks should be able to move the ball on Sunday. When this team finds itself close to the end zone, there is a good chance that Charbonnet is going to receive the ball. Charbonnet's eight touchdowns in 2025 already match his career high from a season ago. When he scores, he delivers flex value for fantasy football. With the Falcons deploying a weaker defense against opposing running backs, Charbonnet may even find running room outside of the red zone. If Charbonnet can turn in a relatively efficient game and find the end zone, you will be happy in fantasy. As usual, Charbonnet is a risky play. However, his touchdown upside in Week 14 is high if you need a starter.
