Outlook Jonah Coleman

Jonah Coleman vs KC — Carving Out Value in Denver's Backfield

Fresh off injured reserve, rookie Jonah Coleman made an immediate impact with 69 total yards on 11 touches against Arizona. Head coach Sean Payton noted postgame that the team definitely needs to get him more touches. With Tyler Badie on injured reserve, Coleman has quickly solidified his role in Denver's backfield rotation alongside J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey.

Our weekly projection forecasts Coleman for roughly eight to nine carries, two targets, and 42 scrimmage yards (7.6 fantasy points). Fantasy managers have taken notice, driving his roster rate up to 64%, though his start rate sits at just 8%. In a tight divisional matchup, he profiles as a priority stash and viable deep-league option whose workload could surge.

Outlook Josh Jacobs

Josh Jacobs vs. Carolina: Primed for Lead Workload in Lambeau Debut

After returning from the exempt list, Jacobs reclaimed lead duties last week, logging 11 carries and catching five passes for 55 yards and a touchdown. Uncontested atop Green Bay's depth chart, he now prepares for his 2026 Lambeau Field debut on Thursday night against Carolina.

Fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as his start rate has climbed to 87%. Our weekly projection anticipates 15 carries for 62 yards and 15.8 fantasy points. Despite recent injuries to the interior offensive line, Green Bay is favored at home in a solid scoring environment, making Jacobs a locked-in starter.
