Emanuel Wilson - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Highly efficient in OT loss Wilson rushed 14 times for 82 yards and recovered a fumble in the Packers' 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears on Saturday night.

Impact Wilson was effective throughout the night, and after Josh Jacobs lost a fumble at the Bears' three-yard line in the third quarter, the former handled the rest of Green Bay's non-quarterback rushing opportunities. Wilson's rushing yardage total was his second highest of the season, and he may have earned himself a bigger workload in next Saturday night's home showdown against the Ravens even if Jacobs is healthy enough to play through his knee and ankle injuries.

Two carries in Week 15 loss Wilson (illness) rushed twice for three yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Broncos. He also returned four kickoffs for 95 yards.

Impact Wilson played through a questionable tag but so did starter Josh Jacobs (knee), who had 92 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 14 touches to lead Green Bay's backfield as usual. Chris Brooks had two carries for 10 yards and caught one of two targets for six yards as both backups played sparingly. Wilson's role is unlikely to grow as long as Jacobs is available Saturday against the Bears.

Suiting up Sunday despite illness Wilson (illness) is active for Sunday's contest at Denver, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Wilson was tacked on to the Packers' Week 15 injury report Saturday due to an illness and deemed questionable for Sunday. Adam Schefter of ESPN later reported that Wilson showed up to team facilities earlier Saturday under the weather and was sent home with medication with the aim he'd feel well enough to play this weekend. Wilson at least will be available to Green Bay's offense, but he may only be available in an emergency capacity behind Josh Jacobs (knee), while Chris Brooks also in on hand for snaps.

Impact Per Schefter, Wilson showed up at Green Bay's training facility with a virus Saturday and was sent home with medication. While the team hopes the running back has recovered enough to play Sunday, it sounds like that decision won't be made until he checks in with the Packers early Sunday. Starting RB Josh Jacobs (knee) is expected to suit up against Denver, according to Schefter, but if Wilson sits out, more carries could be available for Chris Brooks and practice-squad elevation Pierre Strong.

Packers running back Emanuel Wilson joins Josh Jacobs on injured report

The Green Bay Packers are unsure about the availability of either of their top two running backs for Sunday's game at Denver

DECEMBER 13 • Associated Press

Questionable due to illness Wilson was added to the Packers' injury report Saturday due to an illness, and he is now listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Impact The illness is a new issue for Wilson, as he wasn't listed on the Packers' injury report during Week 15 prep. He has served as the Packers' primary backup running back for Josh Jacobs this season, and the latter is working through increased swelling in his knee that also has him in jeopardy of missing Sunday's contest. The Packers reinforced their backfield depth Saturday by elevating Pierre Strong from the practice squad, and if one or both of Jacobs and Wilson were to be sidelined for Week 15, then Strong and Chris Brooks would be in line for increased roles on offense against Denver.

Workload remains limited Wilson had three carries for 10 yards in Sunday's 28-21 victory over the Bears. He also returned two kickoffs for 55 yards in the game.

Impact It was not long ago that Wilson racked up 12 touches against the Giants and a whopping 30 touches against the Giants with starting running back Josh Jacobs exiting the first contest due to injury and sitting out the second one altogether, but Jacobs handled the bulk of the backfield work in his Week 13 return, and he did the same Sunday. With Jacobs healthy and the Packers potentially playing must-win games the rest of the way, it's looking like Jacobs will be the bell cow while Wilson spells the starter as needed.

Just four totes in Week 13 Wilson carried the ball four times for 14 yards in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Lions.

Impact With Josh Jacobs back in action after a one-game absence, Wilson returned to a depth role. The third-year back proved himself in Week 12 with 125 scrimmage yards and two rushing TDs as the starter, but as long as Jacobs is healthy, Wilson's workload will be unpredictable at best -- over the four games prior to his spot start, he saw anywhere from two to 14 touches.

Joined by jacobs again in Week 13 Wilson is poised to take a step back in the Packers backfield for Thursday's game at Detroit with Josh Jacobs (knee) active, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.

Impact Wilson was Green Bay's lead runner in this past Sunday's win against the Vikings, racking up 28 carries for 107 yards and two touchdowns and gathering in both targets for 18 yards. When Jacobs was active for the first 10 games of the season, even Week 11 at the Giants, when Jacobs made an early exit due to the knee injury, Wilson topped out at 11 touches (three times), 87 total yards and one TD in a given contest. Assuming Jacobs is good for his normal workload, Wilson likely will fall back to single-digit touch territory.
