Josh Jacobs at New England — Heavy Workload Secures Everyday Starter Value

Josh Jacobs remains fully entrenched as Green Bay's lead back despite off-field noise, with offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich emphasizing the need to continuously feed him. Jacobs has handled heavy volume over his last two contests, recording 32 carries, 11 receptions, and two receiving touchdowns to firmly control the Packers' backfield touches.

Heading on the road to face New England, our models project Jacobs for around 14 rushes, 73 total yards, and three catches for approximately 14.7 fantasy points. With backup MarShawn Lloyd nursing a knee injury, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as a high-floor option.

Outlook Ryan Flournoy

Ryan Flournoy at Indianapolis — Expanding Slot Role in High-Scoring Matchup

Flournoy enters Week 9 firmly operating as the starting slot receiver in Dallas with his role primed for growth. Teammate KaVontae Turpin has been ruled out, while perimeter receiver George Pickens is questionable with a hamstring issue, potentially opening up extra targets. Flournoy has capitalized on his recent looks, hauling in seven of eight targets for 108 yards and a touchdown over his past two games.

Facing the Colts in a dome with an elevated 51.5 over/under, the scoring environment clearly supports passing volume. Our projections anticipate Flournoy catching around three passes for 41 yards, generating roughly 10 PPR points. With his roster mark climbing to 54%, he profiles as a viable flex option or quality streamer in deeper formats.
