Josh Jacobs comes back with another banger

Josh Jacobs Headshot

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs posted 20 carries for 69 yards and a rushing TD in Week 5 vs. the Packers. He also roped in all 5 targets for an additional 20 yards as a pass-catcher in the contest. Jacobs got off to a bit of a slow start in 2023, but fantasy managers who stuck it out with the reigning rushing champ have been rewarded with back-to-back TD games. It’s also worth noting that Jacobs leads all RBs with 30 targets through five weeks. Even if he again fails to eclipse the century mark in rushing yards next week vs. the Patriots, managers can feel comfortable knowing that Jacobs will see his fair share of receiving involvement.
