Jahmyr Gibbs

Every nerd who said the Lions were foolish for selecting Gibbs in the first round has a tiny bit of egg on their face. Gibbs finished the season as the RB8 in fantasy points per game and fantasy points per opportunity. He was a tackle-breaking blur last season, ranking 18th in yards after contact per attempt and 11th in missed tackles forced per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). After David Montgomery returned from injury, Gibbs averaged 14.1 touches and 73.1 total yards per game. Montgomery isn't going anywhere, but that doesn't mean Gibbs can't be a top-shelf RB1 again in 2024.

Jahmyr Gibbs rushed 13 times for 30 yards and one touchdown while also failing to haul in his lone target in the Lions' 30-20 win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 18.

Fantasy Impact

Gibbs continues a solid stretch out of the Detroit backfield of late, reaching the end zone in four of his last five games for the Lions. The dynamic rookie found plenty of success as part of a strong two-headed Detroit backfield attack, rushing for 915 yards and 10 touchdowns to go along with 52 receptions for 316 receiving yards and one touchdown in 14 games for the Lions this season.
