Outlook Baker Mayfield

Baker Mayfield at Carolina — Back Under Center Looking to Spark Tampa Bay

Mayfield is set to return to the starting lineup against Carolina after missing three games with a dislocated thumb, playing through the issue with a custom protective glove. While he practiced in full to close the week, his receiving corps will be shorthanded with primary target Emeka Egbuka ruled out.

Our projections forecast Mayfield for roughly 215 passing yards and a touchdown (15.9 fantasy points). Given potential grip concerns with his throwing hand and a thinned-out perimeter, he is best viewed as a mid-tier QB2 or deep-league streamer rather than a trustworthy single-QB option this week.

Outlook Josh Jacobs

Josh Jacobs at Detroit — Set for Immediate Lead Role in High-Scoring Matchup

Jacobs has officially been activated from the exempt list and will make his season debut against the Lions. Despite missing the first six weeks, reports confirm he will step straight into a normal starting workload atop the Green Bay backfield with Chris Brooks sidelined.

Playing in what projects as a high-scoring divisional battle inside Ford Field, our models project Jacobs for approximately 13 carries, 53 rushing yards, and finding the end zone for 13.1 fantasy points. Fantasy start rates have spiked from 1% to over 64% this week, and fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as a strong RB2.
