TreVeyon Henderson
vs Josh Jacobs

“Henderson played 13 more snaps and had 10 more carries than Rhamondre Stevenson , possibly because Stevenson lost a fumble on New England’s first possession of the game. But Stevenson is regarded as the far better pass blocker, and the Patriots’ offensive line has not done a great job of handling pressure this season. It’s going to be very hard to predict the workload split between Henderson and Stevenson.”

“According to Nathan Jahnke , Stevenson played on New England’s first four snaps of their opening drive before losing a fumble, and TreVeyon Henderson played 21 out of 25 snaps across five subsequent drives while Stevenson recorded just six snaps during that stretch. Stevenson wasn’t completely mothballed, but he opened the door for Henderson, and the speedy second-year pro took advantage of the opportunity. Henderson played 33 snaps, ran 12 routes and carried the ball 16 times for 76 yards and a touchdown.”

“Henderson played 60% of the snaps and received 61.5% of the backfield opportunities on his way to 13.6 PPR points. Stevenson, on the other hand, scored only 4.3 PPR points while getting 30.8% of the backfield opportunities on 36.4% of the snaps. Stevenson is a solid back, but Henderson has the higher ceiling; it shouldn’t surprise anyone if he commands the majority of the backfield for the rest of the season.”

“More importantly, Henderson is an injury to Stevenson away from being a league winner and a top-10 running back.”

“According to Fantasy Points Data, his 5.6% explosive run rate last season was higher than Saquon Barkley (4.6%) and Travis Etienne Jr. (3.5%). More importantly, Henderson is an injury to Stevenson away from being a league winner and a top-10 running back.”

“TreVeyon Henderson finished his rookie season as the RB24 in fantasy points per game, but it wasn’t nearly that productive for fantasy managers when you look at the full breakdown of how it unfolded. In Weeks 10-11, Rhamondre Stevenson wasn’t active, and Henderson feasted with 60.3 combined PPR points, which accounted for 29.2% of his overall fantasy production for the season.”

“TreVeyon Henderson (RB – NE) All offseason, TreVeyon Henderson was drafted several spots ahead of Rhamondre Stevenson , but the gap has narrowed significantly.”

“” – Ryan Linkletter ( Blitz Sports Media ) TreVeyon Henderson (RB – NE) “I didn’t think I would be taking much TreVeyon Henderson , but at an RB26 ranking, it’s hard to find more talented players or those with more upside. Henderson is being called by many the bust of the year already, and he does have some risk, but so do Tuten, Warren, and Price, who may be bench players at the end of the year.”

“While fantasy players had high hopes for him as a rookie, Henderson was unstartable for most of the year, finishing as the RB21. His 12.1 PPR fantasy points per game average was lower than Kenneth Gainwell’ s (13) and Rhamondre Stevenson ‘s (12.8).”

“Including the playoffs, Treveyon Henderson scored no more than 8.2 PPR points in six of his last seven games.”

“Henderson could eat into Stevenson’s workload more in 2026 if he can take another step and payoff as an RB2, but he ‘s best viewed as an upside RB3.”

“TreVeyon Henderson (RB – NE) Henderson is currently going 58th overall, a full 20 picks ahead of his own backfield mate in the rankings. Last year’s split tells the story: while his teammate was healthy, Henderson managed just 6.6 fantasy points per game across the first eight weeks.”

“5% Josh Jacobs is on the commissioner’s exempt list, which suddenly puts Lloyd in position to lead GB’s backfield with limited NFL experience.”

“Based on the NFL’s statement, though, there is still no timeline for clarity to emerge regarding how much time Jacobs will miss during the regular season. As noted by Mark Maske of Front Office Sports , any games Jacobs spends on the commissioner’s exempt list before a ban were to be handed down would count toward his suspension. Players typically lose their game checks for each contest missed through suspension, but Maske adds Jacobs would have his pay returned for any games sidelined on the exempt list prior to a suspension being handed down.”

“The legal situation swirling around Josh Jacobs will definitely put a crimp into the plans of how the Packers operate, forcing oft-injured MarShawn Lloyd to become the de facto top running back instead.”

“Josh Jacobs was placed on the Commissioner's Exempt List, and his availability is unknown.”

“Josh Jacobs is one of the easiest running backs to target on Fantrax if he slips to his ADP of 40. At a 32 ADP on FantasyPros, that is eight picks later than other sites. Jacobs has already demonstrated a high-end fantasy ceiling and a true workhorse role in Green Bay.”

“Round 13: MarShawn Lloyd (RB – GB) Josh Jacobs could still be suspended by the NFL, allowing MarShawn Lloyd a chance to get on the field.”

“If healthy, Jacobs has a top-5 fantasy ceiling. But as the 28-year-old continues to pile up volume and small injuries, fantasy managers should be wary of the production tapering off.”

“Josh Jacobs (RB – GB) Going as the RB14, 21st overall, Jacobs is projected for 289 carries, 1,161 rushing yards, and 12 rushing touchdowns, plus another 36 catches and roughly one receiving touchdown. Health was the story that took some shine off last season, as a knee bruise and thigh injury limited him over the second half.”

“Josh Jacobs was involved in an offseason domestic incident that is reportedly still under investigation, though no charges have been filed.”

“1 | Diff: +5 Josh Jacobs has been the RB8 and RB9 in fantasy points per game during his two seasons in Green Bay.”

“Josh Jacobs might be the biggest value in early fantasy football drafts. Despite finishing as a productive fantasy back last season, Jacobs is currently being drafted outside the top 12 running backs in many formats. The case is simple: Green Bay trusts Jacobs near the goal line, he remains heavily involved as an early-down runner, and his receiving floor is underrated.”
