Josh Jacobs Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) is expected to be designated to return and practice this week, according to The Athletic's Matt Schneidman. Lloyd has been dealing with injuries since the summer and has played just 10 snaps so far this season. If the rookie can get and stay healthy, he still has a chance to ascend to the No. 2 spot on Green Bay's depth chart, but he has work to do to get there. For now, Lloyd is only worth stashing in deep fantasy leagues.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs notched 95 yards on 13 carries in a Week 9 loss to Detroit. Jacobs’ 7.3 yards per carry mark tied his single-game career high.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Lions. He only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but we’ve heard nothing about the ankle being an issue today. The bigger concern is the matchup against Detroit’s second-ranked RB defense.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs (ankle) is expected to play in today's game vs. the Lions, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Jacobs only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but we never sensed any concern about his status for this one. The matchup against a stout Detroit run defense is a bigger issue than the ankle.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Lions. He only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but we’ve heard nothing to suggest that he’s in real danger of missing this one. We’ll look for further updates on Jacobs but won’t get Green Bay’s inactives until a little before 3 pm ET on Sunday. RBs Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks have been splitting work behind Jacobs recently.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He should be available for this weekend's game vs. the Lions, but we'll see what he does on Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He told the media afterward that he’ll be fine for this weekend’s game vs. the Lions. We’ll keep an eye on him over the next few days, but Jacobs can stay penciled into fantasy lineups for now.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs ran the ball 25 times for 127 yards and 2 TDs over the Jaguars. With QB Jordan Love being knocked out with a groin injury, Jacobs carried the offense in the win.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs finally caught his first career TD pass in Sunday's win over the Texans. That marked one of his 5 receptions for 16 yards. Jacobs finished second on the team in catches and scored from 8 yards out in the middle of the third quarter.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs managed just 43 yards on 14 carries in the Week 3 win over the Titans. Only one of his runs went for more than six yards. Jacobs had another four carries for 39 yards negated by penalties. It was an even more frustrating game for fantasy owners because No. 2 RB Emanuel Wilson ripped off 85 total yards and a TD on 14 total touches. That was only one fewer touch than Jacobs finished with.

Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Titans. We’re tentatively expecting him back for next weekend’s divisional game vs. the Vikings but will continue to keep a close eye on his progress. QB Malik Willis gets another start today. The Packers threw just 14 passes vs. 53 runs with Willis at the helm last week. Expect another run-heavy attack today (although probably not that extreme).

ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport hear that Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is not expected to play vs. the Titans today. Love got in three limited practices this week, and Rapoport confirms that he has a good chance to return in Week 4. We've been projecting Willis to start against Tennessee all week, so there are no changes to our Week 3 Rankings. Expect another run-heavy game plan from Green Bay.

Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Titans. He put in three limited practices this weekend. HC Matt LaFleur hinted Friday that Love still hasn’t been medically cleared to play. We’re still tentatively expecting QB Malik Willis to get another start on Sunday, but we’ll keep you updated on Love’s status.

Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) "has a chance" to play vs. the Titans this weekend, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he plays this week,” a Packers source told Schefter. “It’s definitely day-by-day like he said, and 50-50 at best right now.” Love was officially limited in Wednesday's practice.

The Packers are placing RB MarShawn Lloyd on IR with the ankle injury he suffered in the Week 2 win over the Colts, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. That was Lloyd's debut after missing most of August and Week 1 with hip and hamstring injuries. The rookie is now out another four games. At this point, it's tough to imagine him being a fantasy factor this season, even if RB Josh Jacobs goes down.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs ended with a final stat line of 32 carries for 151 yards, but no receptions in the game. The offense was put on Jacobs shoulders early running the ball 20 times in the first half for 128 yards. He did have a fumble at the goal line, giving the ball away to the Colts.

Packers RB MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) is active for today’s game against the Colts. The rookie is not a fantasy option in his debut, but we’ll be curious to see how many snaps he plays compared to RB Emanuel Wilson. Lloyd remains the preferred handcuff to Josh Jacobs.

Packers QB Jordan Love (knee) is targeting a Week 5 return, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Though there is a chance he beats that goal," Rapoport adds.

Packers RB rookie MarShawn Lloyd will make his NFL debut this week as the Packers take on the Indianapolis Colts. Lloyd missed Week 1 with a hamstring injury that had ailed him for much of the preseason. He is presumed to be the back-up to RB Josh Jacobs.
