Who Should I Start? Leonard Fournette or Josh Jacobs

Monday, November 11, 12:22 PM

The Cincinnati Bengals are working out veteran free-agent running back Leonard Fournette on Monday. The Bengals apparently are considering adding to their RB room after Zack Moss (neck) suffered a season-ending injury in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, despite trading for Khalil Herbert at the deadline last Tuesday. Chase Brown should operate as the team's unquestioned lead back moving forward, with Trayveon Williams as the RB3 behind Brown and Herbert. If the Bengals were to add Fournette, he'd almost certainly start on the practice squad before potentially working his way onto the active 53-man roster as additional RB depth. The 29-year-old veteran played in two games with the Bills in 2023 and has 12 carries for 40 yards on the ground. There's no guarantee that Lenny would find a significant role in Cincy if he were to be signed.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is off the injury report for the first time since Week 11, after a late-season knee injury limited his impact down the stretch. After being rested for the team's Week 18 season finale, Jacobs recently told reporters that he's feeling better than he has in six weeks, and if he can regain the burst that he came out of the gates with, he figures to be an impactful player in fantasy playoff leagues. Through the first ten weeks of 2025, Jacobs was on a full-season pace of nearly 1,600 yards from scrimmage and over 20 touchdowns. Green Bay opens the playoffs on the road against a Bears team with whom they split the season series, and Jacobs is RotoBaller's RB7 for the first week of playoff fantasy leagues.
