Fred Jackson should get a plenty of reps on Sunday. Should his fantasy owners start him this week?
Buffalo Bills running back Fred Jackson hasn't been racking up the rushing yards since his return to the lineup. In his last three weeks, he's only had 137 rushing yards combined and yet he's still averaged 13.6 fantasy points per game in PPR leagues.
The Bills had a few difficult matchups in that span, so Jackson's value came in the passing game, catching 16 passes in those three games. They will get a better matchup this week against the Green Bay Packers this week. The Packers were one of the worst defenses against the run earlier this season, but they do have three consecutive games allowing below 90 yards on the ground to backs.
The Bills are at home and they should be able to put up some points. They'll need Jackson to get it going to keep quarterback Aaron Rodgers off the field.
Fantasy impact: Jackson is a must-play option in PPR and is a very solid RB2 in standard leagues. He has very nice upside, as well.
