Jeremiyah Love fantasy outlook

Jeremiyah Love enters the 2026 season with ARI and ranks RB28 and #103 overall in the current Gridiron Value projection. The model projects 167.2 PPR points across 14.0 games, or 11.9 points per game, placing the expected outcome in a lineup and depth tier. The preseason depth chart lists Jeremiyah Love as RB1, so the opportunity forecast is tied to that current role rather than name value alone. There is not yet a complete recent NFL season in the data, so role, draft investment, and the current team environment carry more weight than player history. Projection confidence is 19%, with a 34% modeled chance of a Top-24 positional finish. The main uncertainty is translating a limited NFL sample into a full-season role.

Week 2 projection

Jeremiyah Love is projected for 5.6 PPR points at home against SEA in week 2, with a likely range of 0.2 to 15.5.
