Summary

Running Back Rank: #281All Players: #1114

Jacobs had a so-so season for the Giants, finishing with his lowest yardage totals since 2006. And he even got some starts because of injury. Jacobs had double-digit carries six times and had a 100-yard game. He averaged just 3.8 yards per carry, though, which was a low total compared to past seasons for him. Jacobs did manage to score seven touchdowns, giving him seven or more scores three of the last four seasons. Jacobs has two 1,000-yard seasons for his career but has fewer than 900-rushing yards each of the last three seasons. He turns 30 before the start of the season, which is a concern, especially given his production the last few seasons. Jacobs is best suited as a backup or platoon player at this stage of his career, a role he should serve with the 49ers. Jacobs is a big, bruising back with decent speed and the ability to run over would-be tacklers. Jacobs also has quick feet, which enables him to break some long runs despite his big size. He does tend to try to break too many plays to the outside, which normally results in bad results as he doesn't have the speed to turn the corner often.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Jacobs is worth a reserve spot for fantasy teams, especially because of his touchdown potential in what should be a pretty good offense. He could get 700 total yards and around double-digit touchdowns. He isn't going to post big weekly numbers in a reserve role, though. And even if he gets some starts, he proved last season he only has value as a low-end No. 2 back or flex option.

San Francisco 49ers RB Brandon Jacobs, who was inactive in Week 14, is voicing his frustrations over his playing time. Jacobs recently posted photos of himself on Instagram in his Giants uniform with his Super Bowl rings. On Saturday, Dec. 8, he posted a message saying he is 'rotting away' on the 49ers. Head coach Jim Harbaugh declined to comment about Jacobs' comments following their Week 14 game. Jacobs has played in two of 13 games since joining the 49ers earlier this year.

San Francisco 49ers RB Kendall Hunter (ankle) will miss the rest of the season with a left ankle injury that he suffered in Week 12, according to a person informed of Hunter's prognosis. The Niners have not announced a timetable for Hunter, however. RBs LaMichael James and Brandon Jacobs will be asked to increase their roles as a result. James has yet to be active for a game this year.
Fantasy Impact: We would expect Jacobs to get most of the work that Hunter was getting but he still isn't much of a fantasy option.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh discussed his vision for RB Brandon Jacobs going forward. 'I think that's all decided on the field. Brandon came here, in training camp was doing very well and got injured. Then he is working his way back. That's a process that's going on, and simultaneously you have some guys who have played very well at that position. So I would say it's a process,' Harbaugh said. Jacobs dressed for the first time in Week 7 against the Seattle Seahawks, but he did not get into the game.
