Outlook Chris Brooks
Chris Brooks at Minnesota — Rotational Role in Jacobs' Absence
With primary running back Josh Jacobs sidelined on the commissioner exempt list, Green Bay turns to a reshaped backfield committee featuring MarShawn Lloyd and Brooks. Brooks earned his spot on the 53-man roster after shaking off a preseason hamstring injury and enters Week 1 positioned to handle rotational touches behind Lloyd.
Even with increased opportunity, our weekly projections anticipate a modest workload on the road against Minnesota, slating him for roughly five carries, two targets, and 5.5 fantasy points. Rostered in 15% of leagues but started in just 1%, Brooks remains a speculative stash who should stay on fantasy benches this week.

J.K. Dobbins Faces Tough Division Road Test in Kansas City
Dobbins enters the opener fully healthy and atop Denver's running back depth chart ahead of RJ Harvey and Jonah Coleman. While he remains heavily rostered at 97%, a modest 19% start rate signals that fantasy managers are taking a wait-and-see approach with Sean Payton's backfield workload distribution.
Facing the Chiefs on the road, our projections slot Dobbins for roughly 12 carries, 55 rushing yards, and a couple of targets, adding up to 10.5 fantasy points. With a projected close game and limited receiving work, he operates as a viable, touchdown-dependent flex option rather than an automatic starter.
