Can Josh Jacobs Put Late-Season Slump Behind Him?

Wednesday, January 7, 2:24 PM

Green Bay running back Josh Jacobs was rested for the team's Week 18 loss to the Vikings, along with most of the Packers' starters, and fantasy managers are hoping the extended time off will help him get back on track after a disappointing, injury-plagued close to the season. Bothered by ankle and knee injuries down the stretch, he was held to 51 total yards over his last two starts, including a three-yard performance in Week 17. In opening the playoffs on the road in Chicago, Jacobs faces a Bears defense that has allowed over 190 rushing yards in two of their last three games. However, an obvious caveat is that one of those games came against the Packers in Week 16, in which a clearly limited Jacobs accounted for only 36 yards while fumbling once. After a week of rest, Jacobs is RotoBaller's RB7 for Wild Card Weekend.
