The Green Bay Packers will visit the Denver Broncos in Week 15. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Emanuel Wilson.
Is Emanuel Wilson Playing in Week 15?
Wilson is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Packers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Wilson in Week 15?
After carrying 28 times (30 touches) in the Week 12 game that Josh Jacobs missed, Emanuel Wilson has been a complete afterthought with RB1 back in the featured role.
- Thanksgiving at Lions: 4 carries for 14 yards, zero targets
- Sunday vs. Bears: 3 carries for 10 yards, zero targets
There’s nothing to suggest that Wilson is due for more work moving forward or that Jacobs is at anything less than full strength. If you want to hold him as an insurance policy or as a ‘one injury away’ piece, I think you can do so, but if you’re in a shallow league where every roster spot needs to be worthy of flex consideration, you’re free to move on in favor of a player that is getting on the field with more regularity.
