Fantasy Football Player Notes
2025 Draft Rankings

7.
Josh Jacobs
(at MIN)
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.

56.
MarShawn Lloyd
(at MIN)
Lloyd lost nearly his entire rookie season to injuries. First, he dealt with a hamstring strain during training camp and the preseason. That was followed by an ankle sprain in Week 2 and surgery to treat appendicitis after that. It was an unfortunate and insane runout for the former third-round pick out of USC. Don't forget Lloyd is a ridiculously talented player who ranked 16th and 20th in yards after contact per attempt and fourth and 15th in elusive rating across his final two collegiate seasons (per PFF). The Packers didn't add anyone to the backfield in the draft. Lloyd should be considered the favorite for the RB2/handcuff spot on the depth chart for Green Bay behind Josh Jacobs. We'll see how much of a stand-alone role he has this season, but his handcuff value alone is solid.
