2025 Fantasy Outlook
Although no one will confuse him for one of the truly elite running backs, Jacobs made a convincing case in 2024 that he was underrated going into the season. The Packers were vindicated in their decision to move on from the beloved Aaron Jones and bring in Jacobs as their starter, both because Jacobs' production was good in general and because his stocky, strong frame allowed the team to run power concepts that didn't work well with Jones. Despite failing to score in his first four games, Jacobs finished 2024 with a career-high 16 TDs, tied for fifth most among all players. As great as 2024 went for him, it was a less encouraging year for Green Bay's offense in general, with QB Jordan Love and WR Christian Watson (among others) hitting plateaus or setbacks. Jacobs became the centerpiece of an otherwise inconsistent offense, topping 20 touches eight times as the first true workhorse back of coach Matt LaFleur's tenure in Green Bay. LaFleur may try to give backups more of those touches this year, but it's not a strong enough group to give Jacobs serious trouble. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Big game in postseason loss
Jacobs rushed the ball 18 times for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Eagles. He added three receptions on three targets for 40 yards.
ANALYSIS
Jacobs was the driving force behind Green Bay's comeback attempt in the second half, with the highlight being an impressive 32-yard touchdown run at the close of the third quarter. He also chipped in long receptions of 15 and 14 yards to close his campaign on a strong note. After posting a career-best 16 touchdowns while tallying 1,671 yards from scrimmage during the regular season, Jacobs will almost certainly be back to lead the backfield for the Packers in 2025.

It was never made especially easy for Jacobs during his five years in Oakland/Vegas, where he was subjected to poor blocking and/or poor quarterback play at most points but still ran for more than 800 yards each season. His arrival in Green Bay might look like a vacation in comparison, location aside. The Jordan Love-Matt LaFleur offense was one of the league's best by the end of 2023, and the Packers are returning four of five starters on their offensive line. It might be daunting to replace a beloved player like Aaron Jones, but Jacobs is younger, bigger and stronger, potentially opening the door for more success running between the tackles. A four-year, $48 million contract suggests Jacobs should stay busy for the Packers, even with AJ Dillon re-signed and MarShawn Lloyd drafted in the third round. Dillon's YPC average has dropped with each passing season -- all the way down to 3.4 last year -- while Lloyd is a talented runner but couldn't stop fumbling throughout his college career. As much as Jacobs would be hard-pressed to pursue another league rushing title like in 2022 when he ran for 1,653 yards and 12 touchdowns, he's at least in good position to enjoy his second- or third-best season to date.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Feels '24 could have been better
Despite a resurgent 2024 season, Jacobs feels like he "still left a lot on the table," Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Jacobs finished the 2024 regular season with 1,329 rushing yards, a career-high 15 rushing touchdowns and a 36-342 receiving line that also included his first career touchdown reception across 17 games. However, Hodkiewicz points out film study indicated there were several instances where Jacobs needed to make just one more tackler miss to turn a solid carry into an explosive play of 50 yards or more. Jacobs did finish the season healthy and is looking forward to achieving the goal he and the Packers fell short of last season despite his impressive numbers, namely, a Super Bowl title.
