Getty Josh Jacobs #28 of the Las Vegas Raiders reacts after being injured on a play against the Atlanta Falcons.
Welcome to our Fantasy Football Running Back Rankings for Week 13 of the 2020 NFL regular season. This week owners will not only be stripped of the league’s 4th-leading rusher in Tampa Bay’s Ronald Jones due to a bye, but potentially a top-10 fantasy scorer as well, as Josh Jacobs is dealing with a bum ankle.

Running Back Outlook Week 13
Josh Jacobs (RB6) has been as aggravating of an RB1 this season as there has been in recent memory. The sixth-highest scoring player at the position, Jacobs has averaged just 41 rushing ypg over four of his last six games. Yet, in those other two games, he’s averaged 120.5 ypg and 21.25 fantasy ppg. This week’s matchup presents upside that would align with those latter numbers, as the Jets surrender the 10th-most points to RBs this year. Unfortunately, Jacobs may not be available to feast on the putrid Jets.
Here’s what NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport had to say about Jacobs’ injured ankle:
#Raiders RB Josh Jacobs, whose day was cut short after 10 touches and a fumble, suffered an ankle sprain, source said. He’s having tests this morning, but sounds like it looked worse than it is. Jacobs hasn’t missed a game this season.
If Jacobs can’t go this week, Devontae Booker (RB19) automatically rises into the RB2 discussion.
