Jahmyr Gibbs Remains A High-End RB2 In Week 7 Despite Tough Matchup
2 months agoDetroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs faces a tough test against the Minnesota Vikings' elite run defense in Week 7. While Gibbs has shown incremental improvements this season, including a 34.1% increase in fantasy points per target and more explosive plays, his opportunities remain limited due to the presence of David Montgomery. Gibbs has surpassed 16 touches just once this season, which caps his fantasy ceiling. Gibbs had an impressive showing against Minnesota last season, tallying 100 total yards, but it's hard to project a similar workload in this matchup. Over the past three games, Gibbs has averaged 15.1 fantasy points, with 224 rushing yards and three total touchdowns. Despite the Vikings' strong run defense, Gibbs should still see enough volume in one of the league's best offenses to maintain high-end RB2 value this week, but a breakout performance is unlikely.
