George Kittle vs Josh Jacobs: Who Should You Start?

Comparing George Kittle (TE, San Francisco 49ers) against Josh Jacobs (RB, Green Bay Packers) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. George Kittle averaged 12.1 PPG in 2025 over 11 games, while Josh Jacobs posted 14.6 PPG across 15 games.

Cross-position FLEX decisions cannot be made on PPG alone. Positional scarcity, matchup quality, floor versus ceiling, and league scoring format all shift the answer. A 14 PPG tight end in a thin TE week is often worth more than a 16 PPG receiver in a deep WR week, because the opportunity cost on the waiver wire is wildly different.

DraftCall's AI engine weighs all of these signals and returns a verdict with clear reasoning, so you are not cross-referencing four different rankings tabs on a Sunday morning.

George Kittle has his bye in Week 9, Josh Jacobs in Week 10. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.
