Josh Jacobs Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, May 8th 2025, 12:07pm EDT

With Jordan Love dinged up last year, the passing game weapons falling flat, and MarShawn Lloyd unable to stay healthy, Jacobs became a volume hog and the engine of the Packers' offense. Last year, Jacobs ranked eighth in weighted opportunities, sixth in carries, and fifth in red zone touches. In 2024, the Packers ranked fifth in rushing attempts, rushing yards, and rushing touchdowns. Jacobs also had solid showings in tackle-breaking metrics, ranking 14th in missed tackles forced per attempt and 19th in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). Jacobs was the RB8 in fantasy points per game. If Lloyd can stay healthy this year, he could make some noise in this backfield, but it will most likely remain Jacobs' show in 2025 as a low-end RB1.
