Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee) is off the injury report and is good to go on Saturday night against the Baltimore Ravens. Jacobs was limited all three days of practice this week with a nagging knee injury he suffered in Week 11 against the New York Giants. He played just 40% of snaps in last week's stunning loss to the Chicago Bears, while Emmanuel Wilson played 47%. Jacobs faces a Baltimore Ravens defense that has allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to running backs this season. With the Packers firmly clinched in the postseason, there's a possibility Jacobs could be limited again in Week 17. However, fantasy managers can still trust him in starting lineups for fantasy championships this week.

The Green Bay Packers' defense and special teams unit have been a disappointing unit most of the season, and they'll host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17. Against the Bears in Week 16, Green Bay did not tally a sack or a turnover in its second game since losing star pass rusher Micah Parsons for the season. Since losing Parsons, the Packers have not sacked the quarterback once in two games. They've only forced one turnover in that span as well, so fantasy managers have likely moved on from the Packers D/ST in terms of fantasy options. Even with the potential of
Tyler Huntley under center for the Ravens in Week 17, the Packers may not be good enough as a unit to take advantage of that matchup. Green Bay is a high-risk fantasy option in Week 17.

Green Bay Packers kicker
Brandon McManus has been a major roll over the past month or so, and he'll look to continue that hot stretch when the Packers host the Ravens in Week 17. McManus hasn't missed a kick in the five games he's been back since suffering a quad injury earlier this season. He's nailed his last 11 field goals and 13 extra points, which has led to double-digit fantasy performances in three of his last five weeks. No matter if the quarterback for the Packers is
Jordan Love or
Malik Willis, Green Bay should be able to find opportunities for McManus in the kicking game. That bodes well for fantasy managers looking to start him, and they should as a solid top-12 option this week against the Ravens.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Luke Musgrave could see a further uptick in his workload for the Packers in Week 17 as Green Bay takes on Baltimore on Saturday at Lambeau Field. Musgrave saw his highest percentage of routes per dropback this season in Week 16, running a route on 84% of dropbacks. That was primarily due to
John FitzPatrick (Achilles) leaving the game because of his injury, and Musgrave seeing that time on the field with Green Bay's TE3
Josh Whyle inactive. Musgrave should see the bulk of the snaps and routes for the tight end position in Week 17, but the murky quarterback situation with
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) and
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness), both questionable, makes it difficult to recommend Musgrave. Consider Musgrave a very risky play for fantasy managers in Week 17.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed remains decently involved in the Packers' passing attack, but will need more involvement to be a locked-in fantasy starter when the Packers host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17. Since returning in Week 14 from injury, Reed hasn't crested double-digit fantasy points in any of his three games. Averaging four targets, four receptions, and 40 receiving yards per game since returning, Reed needs to get more involved in Green Bay's offensive production. He's still being used primarily in the slot with little utilization out wide, which limits his fantasy production. With the quarterback situation up in the air for the Packers with
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) and
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness) both questionable for Week 17, consider Reed a low-end flex for Saturday's game against Baltimore.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Romeo Doubs had a nice week in Week 16 and looks to parlay that into a second consecutive nice game as the Packers will host the Baltimore Ravens in a pivotal Week 17 showdown. In Week 16 against the Bears, Doubs put up a 5-82-1 line on six targets, leading the Packers in all receiving categories as
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) left the game and
Malik Willis came in. Both quarterbacks are questionable for Saturday's Week 17 tilt, leaving some doubt about how much the Packers will pass the ball. With
Christian Watson (shoulder/illness) questionable for Saturday's game, Doubs could see more targets directed his way if Watson doesn't play. However, with Green Bay's willingness to run the ball, passing volume is an issue for any Green Bay pass-catcher. Consider Doubs a low-end flex play for Week 17's matchup against Baltimore, which allows the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing receivers.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson was solidly effective in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears, and looks to keep his run going as he and the Packers will host the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday in Week 17. Wilson led the running attack for the Packers even with starting running back
Josh Jacobs active. Jacobs had 12 carries for just 36 yards in the Packers' Week 16 defeat, but Wilson averaged almost 6.0 yards per carry with 82 yards on 14 rushing attempts. With Jacobs off the injury report for Week 17, it seems that Jacobs is going to take a bigger slice of the pie in terms of rushing attempts to close out the season for the Packers in their playoff push. For fantasy, that doesn't help give fantasy managers much clarity in how the Packers divide their rush attempts. As it stands, Wilson is a low-end, albeit risky flex play against Baltimore.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee/ankle) is not on the injury report following three limited practice sessions, and he is good to go for the Packers' pivotal Week 17 showdown with the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. Jacobs saw his lowest snap percentage (39%) and took just 12 carries for 36 yards in limited action in Week 16 against the Bears. He ceded the way to backfield mate
Emanuel Wilson, who averaged almost 6.0 yards per carry with 82 yards on 14 rushing attempts. Now that Jacobs is off the injury report, he should take the bulk of the carries in a must-win game against the Ravens in Week 17. While Jacobs isn't a locked-in fantasy RB1 like he was for most of the season, Jacobs is more of an RB2 option with plenty of upside for fantasy managers in Week 17.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Willis joins the top option on the depth chart,
Jordan Love (concussion, shoulder), on the final injury report as both QBs carry a questionable tag into the weekend. Willis replaced Love during last Saturday's loss to the Bears and went 9-for-11 with 121 yards and a score. However, the former third-round selection left this game with a shoulder injury and also picked up an illness earlier in the week. Fantasy managers should continue to pay close attention to his status leading up to Saturday's kickoff. Still, Willis appears to be trending in the right direction, as he was able to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday, a significant upgrade after he was unable to practice on Tuesday and Wednesday. If Willis can progress enough, he would hold high-end QB2 upside facing a Baltimore secondary that has allowed the 12th-most PPR points to opposing QBs.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) is listed as questionable for Saturday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Love was forced from their Week 16 contest due to a concussion, but also carries an injury designation related to his left shoulder. In addition, the team's No. 2 QB,
Malik Willis (shoulder/illness), is also listed as questionable, which could pave the way for third-stringer
Clayton Tune (who is currently on the practice squad) to potentially make a start. Before exiting last weekend's contest, Love completed eight of his 13 passes for 77 yards. However, during Weeks 13 through 15, Love was quite productive, averaging a strong 24.1 PPR points per game with an 8:3 TD:INT. If Love can pass through the league's protocol, he would hold low-end QB1 value, facing an inconsistent Baltimore secondary that has allowed the 12th-most PPR points to opposing QBs this season.

Green Bay Packers running back
Emanuel Wilson has been a reliable fill-in starter when he has had his name called on this season.
Josh Jacobs (knee, ankle) has battled injuries off and on this year, and Wilson has taken advantage of every chance he has been given. Recently, Jacobs was battling lower-body injuries heading into Week 16 but managed to play through them against the Chicago Bears. Due to Jacobs being less than fully healthy, Wilson led the Packers in carries and rushing yards in the overtime loss. Wilson finished the game with 14 carries for 82 rushing yards. When Jacobs has missed time, Wilson has been a viable fantasy running back for managers. However, when Jacobs has been healthy, Wilson has been a non-factor in every fantasy format. Wilson has been a solid handcuff running back when he has been forced into action, but his fantasy value is solely attached to the health of Jacobs. If Jacobs cannot give it a go in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens, Wilson is a solid option for fantasy managers.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (knee, ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. This is now back-to-back days that Jacobs has been able to get through a limited session. Jacobs has been playing through lingering knee and ankle issues since Week 11. It has resulted in a smaller workload with 12 carries in each of his last two games. Fellow back
Emanuel Wilson actually out-touched Jacobs during last week's loss to the Chicago Bears. The 26-year-old rushed for 82 yards and could see a larger share in the backfield, given that Jacobs is still banged up. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the injury report ahead of the Week 17 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. Jacobs has been a must-start fantasy RB all year with 14 total touchdowns in 14 games, but he's literally limping to the finish line.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Malik Willis (illness, shoulder) didn't practice on Wednesday due to an illness, according to Ryan Wood of USA Today Sports. Willis did not have a setback with his shoulder in Tuesday's practice (he was limited). The 26-year-old backup was forced into action in Saturday night's loss to the Chicago Bears when starter
Jordan Love suffered a concussion. Willis went 9-for-11 passing for 121 yards and a touchdown, also adding 10 carries for 44 yards on the ground, but he suffered a right-shoulder injury that now makes him questionable to play this Saturday versus the Baltimore Ravens. If neither Willis nor Love can get cleared to play in Week 17, the Packers would be down to third-stringer
Clayton Tune in a huge game. Fantasy managers must continue to keep a close eye on the Packers' QB situation entering the weekend.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love (concussion) will practice again on Wednesday but remains in the league's concussion protocol, according to head coach Matt LaFleur. Love was listed as limited on the team's first injury report of the week on Tuesday after he was forced from Saturday night's loss to the Chicago Bears with a concussion. The 27-year-old signal-caller appears to be making some progress, but he's still very much up in the air to be cleared to face the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17 on Saturday. Backup
Malik Willis (shoulder) is also questionable to play after getting injured after he replaced Love in Week 16 in Chicago. If both Love and Willis aren't able to play against Baltimore, the Packers would be forced to go with
Clayton Tune under center this weekend. Love's status could be a game-time decision on Saturday.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Malik Willis (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report. Head coach Matt LaFleur said that Willis was "pretty sore" after injuring his shoulder while filling in for an injured
Jordan Love (concussion) during Saturday night's loss to the Chicago Bears. The 2022 third-rounder finished the game, but there's a possibility that Willis won't be able to play in the Week 17 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. Willis was excellent in relief of Love, completing nine of 11 passes for 121 yards and a touchdown while adding 10 carries for 44 yards as a runner. If Willis and Love can't go, the Packers would be forced to elevate
Clayton Tune from the practice squad to start against the Ravens.
