With the Packers locked into the No. 7 seed in the NFC playoffs and having nothing to play for in Week 18, there's a good chance they'll rest running back Josh Jacobs, who has been ineffective in recent weeks while trying to play through a knee injury. If Jacobs is out, Wilson would likely handle the bulk of the rushing duties for Green Bay against a run-funnel Minnesota defense that has faced the most rushing attempts by opposing backs of any team in the league. The last time Wilson got a chance to be a lead back was in late November against the Vikings, and he had 28 carries for 107 yards and two touchdowns.

Emanuel Wilson quiet in loss to Ravens

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.
