Thanksgiving Thursday
12:30 PM ET Game
Green Bay @ Detroit
Team Totals: Lions 27.5, Packers 20
Looking to build on last week’s career-high 322 passing yards and top-12 fantasy QB finish, Jordan Love visits domed Ford Field to face a Lions defense that Lamar Jackson carved up for Week 7’s overall QB1 result, Justin Herbert shredded for Week 10’s QB2 score, and Justin Fields bent for a top-10 outcome last Sunday. Love has at least 14 fantasy points in all but one start this year and is a legit running threat, notable since Detroit has yielded the NFL’s ninth-most QB rushing yards (244). … Aaron Jones’ (knee) expected absence gives Green Bay more reason to lean on Love over its backfield rushing attack. With No. 3 RB Emanuel Wilson (shoulder) likewise shelved, plodding A.J. Dillon profiles as the Packers’ Week 12 feature back with Patriots practice squad signee Patrick Taylor next in line for work. Dillon did play every single second-half snap following Jones’ injury against the Chargers and projects as a largely touchdown-reliant RB2. A passing-down specialist, Taylor is a deep sleeper on Thursday-only DFS slates.
Love’s 2023 target distribution: Romeo Doubs 65; Jayden Reed 51; Luke Musgrave 45; Christian Watson 37; Dontayvion Wicks 32; Jones 29; Dillon 21. … Doubs has reached 55 yards just twice all season, but his scoring-zone role is real with seven TDs in 10 games despite zero catches longer than 30 yards all year.
