Rashad Jennings (thumb) likely game-time call for Giants
New York Giants running back Rashad Jennings (thumb) is listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Green Bay Packers. He was limited in practice all week. Jennings seemingly came down to a game-time decision in Monday night's loss to Minnesota, and he will probably go down to game time again versus the Packers. Pass-catching specialist Bobby Rainey looks to have the most secure role in New York's backfield at this point.
What It Means:
Jennings is headed for another game-time call Sunday night after being limited in practice all week. If he can't play, Orleans Darkwa will see the bulk of his work. Bobby Rainey's pass-catching duties are the only reliable fantasy investment in the Giants' backfield at the moment.
Our models believe Jennings will play, projecting him for 9 carries, 41 yards and 0.36 touchdowns this week, making him numberFire's 28th-ranked fantasy running back.
