Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson saw his role shift quite a bit in Week 3 and looks to keep that role as the Packers head to Dallas to take on the Cowboys in Week 4. In recent weeks, the work behind starter
Josh Jacobs has gone to
Chris Brooks, as he's been a better receiving back, pass protector and outlet for quarterback
Jordan Love. However, Wilson doubled Brooks' snaps in Week 3 and earned six carries against a tough Cleveland Browns' front. Wilson has had this role behind Jacobs for most of last season and looks to have that role once again going forward. For Week 4, you're leaving Wilson well away from your starting lineups in fantasy, but if something were to happen to Jacobs, Wilson would likely get the first crack at meaningful touches in this strong Packers' offense.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (ankle) is off the injury report and does not carry a designation into Sunday's contest against the Dallas Cowboys. The top running back in Green Bay remained a limited participant during the entire week but was able to avoid an injury designation. It appears the team was closely monitoring his workload. As a result, fantasy managers should expect the 27-year-old to continue to dominate the opportunities out of the backfield. Through three games this season, Jacobs has seen 19.3 rushing attempts per game and averaged 60.0 rushing yards per game with 13.6 PPR points per game. He should remain the primary workhorse and carries high-end RB2 value facing the Cowboys on Sunday night.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (ankle) was removed from the injury report after three limited practices, and he's good to go for the Packers' Week 4 showdown against the Dallas Cowboys. In Week 3, Jacobs broke his streak of 10 consecutive games where he scored a touchdown in the regular season, as he was bottled up by the Cleveland Browns. Relying on pure volume this season, Jacobs has been a tad disappointing for fantasy, with 3.1 yards per carry on the season as the current RB19 and displaying little of the efficiency that fantasy managers expect from a player that was drafted in the early third round of drafts. Despite touchdowns in the first two contests, Jacobs has not finished higher than RB18 this season. Even with a good matchup on deck with the Packers heading to Dallas to play the Cowboys, Jacobs should be in lineups, but profiles as more of a high-end fantasy RB2 than a locked-in RB1 in Week 4.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love looks to shrug off a loss to the Browns in Week 3 when the Packers head to AT&T Stadium to play the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. Love has had to bank on efficiency through the first few weeks of the season, but for all the great things about the Packers' offense that we've seen, it's not a fantasy-friendly offense. Love has not been a top 12 quarterback in fantasy in each of the season's three weeks, capping out at QB13 in his Week 2 matchup against the Commanders. Passing volume is a major concern for the Packers as well, as Green Bay sports the third-lowest raw pass rate (53 percent) in the NFL and has just one game over 30 passing attempts since Week 9 of 2024: against the Commanders in Week 2. That game was also just the fourth game of 20+ fantasy points for Love in his last 16 starts where he didn't leave the game dating back to 2023. The Packers have a prime matchup against the Cowboys, who have given up the most passing yardage in the NFL. Still, Love cannot be a trusted fantasy QB1 this week with passing volume concerns.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Tucker Kraft (elbow, knee) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. Kraft is dealing with multiple injuries right now, so it's not shocking to see him limited to begin the week. Kraft suffered a knee injury last Thursday and still managed to suit up in Week 3. He hauled in three of his four targets for 29 yards in the loss to the Cleveland Browns. The fact Kraft is limited on Wednesday shouldn't concern fantasy managers. The Packers are likely just being cautious early in the week, so there's no reason to believe Kraft will be absent against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (ankle) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. This shouldn't shock anyone as Jacobs was limited during last week's practice sessions with the same issue. He ultimately was fine by the end of the week and played against the Cleveland Browns in Week 3. This move is likely just the Packers being cautious with Jacobs and trying to limit his reps. The 27-year-old had trouble on the ground last week as he only rushed for 30 yards on 16 attempts in the loss to Cleveland. He'll hope for a bounce back performance against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4.

Green Bay Packers right tackle Zach Tom (oblique) is not expected to play in his team's Week 4 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys as he recovers from an oblique injury he suffered in Week 3, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Packers signed Tom to a four-year, $88 million extension before the 2025 season began, so his absence is a significant blow to the Green Bay offense. Packers left guard Aaron Banks (groin) is also banged up, so the team could potentially be without two starters on the offensive line in Week 4. With Tom sidelined, Darian Kinnard is the favorite to step in at right tackle for Green Bay. Packers quarterback
Jordan Love was sacked five times by the Cleveland Browns in Week 3, although the Browns' defensive line is far more fearsome than the Cowboys.

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver
Savion Williams has mostly been used in a gadget role on offense this season. Williams has just one catch for one yard and four rush attempts for 23 yards through the first three games of his NFL career. Even after an injury to Packers wideout
Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot), Williams remains buried on the team's wide receiver depth chart behind
Romeo Doubs,
Dontayvion Wicks, and
Matthew Golden. Williams could see even less playing time once veteran wide receiver
Christian Watson (knee) makes his return to the field. The 23-year-old rookie should be off the radar of redraft fantasy managers until there are signs of a significant change in role.

It has been a slow burn for Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Matthew Golden, as his first three games in the NFL have drawn mixed reviews from fantasy managers who drafted him in the middle rounds. Through three games, Golden has a combined eight targets, six receptions, and 68 receiving yards, with most of that coming in his best game to date in Week 3, where he caught four balls for 52 yards. He ran routes on 84 percent of quarterback
Jordan Love's dropbacks and earned 22 percent of the first-read targets as well. To say Golden has been a disappointment is fair, but his role is growing. Golden could keep his ramp-up going in a great matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4, but we need to remember that Golden has a shockingly low fantasy floor. That said, Golden is an upside flex play for fantasy managers in Week 4 in the hopes that the downfield work and the Cowboys' porous defense converge to result in Golden's breakout game.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love has had to bank on efficiency through the first few weeks of the season. For all the great things about the Packers' offense that we've seen, it's not a friendly offense for fantasy football. Week 3 was more of the same for Love as he threw for just 183 yards with one touchdown and an interception against a tough Cleveland Browns defense. Love has not been a top 12 fantasy quarterback once through three games, as he's capped out at QB13 in his Week 2 matchup against the Commanders, where Love threw for 292 yards and two touchdowns. Passing volume is a major concern for the Packers as well, as the Packers have just one game over 30 passing attempts since Week 9 of 2024: that same game against the Commanders in Week 2. That game was also just the fourth game of 20+ fantasy points for Love in his last 16 starts where he didn't leave the game, dating back to 2023. The Packers have a prime matchup against the Cowboys, who have given up the most passing yardage in the NFL, but Love cannot be a trusted QB1 or even a streaming option. Given Love's capped ceiling of opportunity and lack of fantasy production within that, he's best left as a QB2 in two-quarterback leagues.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Tucker Kraft had a monster Week 2, where he put up 124 yards on six receptions with a touchdown. That performance got fantasy managers salivating over the potential of Kraft as a mid-to-high-end TE1 option this season. But did we ignore the elephant in the room: the Packers' offense? We've seen the upside of Green Bay's offense when everything is going well, but in Week 3, we may have seen the downside as they fell to the Cleveland Browns in a tough defensive slugfest. Quarterback
Jordan Love threw the ball only 25 times, and nine of those targets were to running back
Josh Jacobs. Kraft could only muster 29 yards on three receptions, but his mid-week knee injury that put him on the injury report could have played into that, too. Kraft is who he is: a volatile boom-or-bust option with an inconsistent volume-earning profile that you can start on good matchups and hope he gets into the end zone in bad matchups. Week 4 is one of the good matchups against Dallas, as the Cowboys have allowed the most passing yards per game this season. Fire up Kraft as a TE1 for Sunday Night Football.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs broke his streak of 10 consecutive regular-season games where he scored a touchdown in Week 3, as he was bottled up by the Cleveland Browns. Nothing new for the Browns, as they've bottled up every opposing rusher, from
Chase Brown to
Derrick Henry. Jacobs had less than 2.0 yards per carry as he put up just 30 rushing yards on 16 carries. He did salvage some of his fantasy day with a team-leading nine targets, catching five of them for 44 yards. With 3.1 yards per carry through three games, Jacobs has been a pure volume play with none of the efficiency that fantasy managers expected from a player who was drafted in the early third round of drafts. Despite touchdowns in the first two contests, Jacobs has not finished higher than RB18 this season. Even with a good matchup on deck with the Packers heading to Dallas to play the Cowboys, Jacobs is more of a high-end RB2 than a locked-in RB1.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Romeo Doubs was a non-factor in Week 3's 13-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns, catching both of his targets for 25 scoreless yards. Sunday was an excellent matchup for those who love a defensive battle, but the offenses on both sides suffered. Doubs continued pacing the Packers' wideouts in snaps by a wide margin. However, his production dipped for the second game in a row since a team-leading 68 yards in Week 1. There was some hope that with his status as the operating WR1, the volume would follow suit. However,
Dontayvion Wicks and rookie
Matthew Golden both out-targeted him (four) despite running on 14 and 12 fewer snaps, respectively. Better days are ahead for Green Bay's offense, but they're rushing the ball at the fourth-highest rate in the league (50.29%), leaving little margin to support more than one pass-catcher per game. They'll face the Cowboys on the road in Week 4.

Green Bay Packers offensive guard Aaron Banks (groin) is questionable to return to his team's Week 3 matchup against the Cleveland Browns due to a groin injury. Second-year offensive lineman Jordan Morgan could be called upon to replace Banks at left guard if he cannot return. The Packers' offensive line struggled to protect quarterback
Jordan Love in the first half, allowing three sacks. Banks' absence would only make the job more difficult against a talented Browns' defensive front.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Tucker Kraft (knee) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. Kraft suffered a knee injury during practice earlier in the week but was able to progress enough not to miss any action. Through the first two weeks of this season, Kraft has enjoyed a strong start as he has found the back of the end zone twice and caught eight of his 11 targets for 140 yards. Much of his yardage total in Week 2 came when he tallied 124 during their victory over the Washington Commanders. Despite his injury, fantasy managers should feel confident starting Kraft in all formats as a high-end TE1, as he should remain a top target in the passing game for
Jordan Love.
