Emanuel Wilson
RB - Green Bay Packers
Availability
Emanuel Wilson ran three times for 16 yards and caught his only target for 8 yards in the Packers' 41-24 loss to Baltimore on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Wilson bested Josh Jacobs in yardage despite having one fewer rush attempt. And it's not like either had a lot of carries in order to "best" each other. Wilson will remain the primary back behind Jacobs and could be worth a look in Week 18 if the Packers can't improve their seeding and sit Jacobs.
Emanuel Wilson carried the ball 14 times for 82 yards in the Packers' 22-16 Week 16 loss to the Bears.
Fantasy Impact
Wilson took advantage of increased opportunities in place of a hobbled Josh Jacobs, rushing for more than 15 yards for the first time in his last four games. The running back could be in line for an increased workload if Jacobs remains injured ahead of a Week 17 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
Overcoming an illness to suit up for Sunday's loss to the Broncos, Emanuel Wilson was effectively shut out of the offensive game plan, managing just three yards on two carries. The reserve back found his only significant production on special teams, returning four kickoffs for 95 yards while watching starter Josh Jacobs dominate the backfield touches despite his own injury concerns.
Fantasy Impact
With fellow backup Chris Brooks also fighting for scraps, Wilson remains firmly off the fantasy radar. He will look to carve out a larger role—likely contingent on Jacobs' health—when the Packers face the Bears on Saturday.
Emanuel Wilson (illness) is active for Week 15 for the Green Bay Packers against the Denver Broncos.
Fantasy Impact
Wilson will suit up after being a late addition to the injury report due to an illness. The running back remains more of a change of pace option out of a Green Bay backfield led by Josh Jacobs (knee) against the Broncos Sunday.
Emanuel Wilson rushed three times for 10 yards in the Packers' 28-21 win over the Bears in Week 14.
Fantasy Impact
Wilson has been an afterthought out of the Green Bay backfield of late, logging less than five carries in each of his last two games. The running back's value remains tied to the health of No. 1 backfield option Josh Jacobs for fantasy managers, with a Week 15 matchup against the Denver Broncos up next.
