What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Chris Rodriguez Jr. (JAX RB), our RB58 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 4.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. 1% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. 4.3 points is roughly 61% short of the RB baseline, and I rank on output, not name recognition. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
