What our analysts say
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Josh Jacobs (GB RB), our RB35 this week for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season against bye, projecting 9.7 projected points with a spicy Pepper Meter rating. Nothing in the projection defends him — 12% below positional par is a bench line for me. No game on the schedule this week, so the only decision is who replaces him. He's listed day to day as of the update below; my rank assumes he plays, and designations move fast. Spicy on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
