Gibbs is consensus 1.01 with bell-cow role and elite TD upside after Montgomery trade.

Gibbs is the consensus 1.01 pick in 2026 12-team PPR leagues. He led the NFL with 38 total touchdowns over the last two years while sharing backfield touches with David Montgomery; with Montgomery traded to Houston, Gibbs is now Detroit's bell-cow back. He's a PPR stud with at least 52 catches in all three NFL seasons and elite big-play ability—no qualified running back hit 20-plus mph more often than Gibbs in 2025, and he logged the fastest (22.34 mph), second-fastest (22.23), and third-fastest (22.17) max speeds on rushes. Described as a do-it-all threat with fantasy-breaking potential and league-winner upside.
