Week 7 Fantasy Football Rankings Early Look: Josh Jacobs Returns
Key Points:
- Tanner McKee of the Eagles emerges as a viable QB1 option in Week 7 fantasy football due to Jalen Hurts' season-ending injury and a favorable matchup against the Cowboys, who provide a +2.4-point fantasy boost to quarterbacks.
- Josh Jacobs may return for the Packers in Week 7, potentially revitalizing a struggling backfield; if active, he is a strong start against the Lions' weak defense with a projected 53.5-point game total.
- Matthew Golden has rapidly ascended in fantasy ranks as the Packers' WR8, boasting a 26% target share and strong recent WR1 finishes, facing a Lions secondary that grants the second-largest fantasy boost to wide receivers.
- Carnell Tate of the Titans is a promising low-end WR2 option due to high utilization and a favorable matchup against the Browns, especially with four teams on bye.
- George Kittle ranks as the TE2 for Week 7, benefiting from a better matchup against the Falcons and increased target share following injuries to key 49ers receivers, showing consistent top-tier tight end production recently.
