All Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz insights about Jeremiyah Love
PositiveProjectionOct 30, 2026
Returning after missing weeks with ankle injury; ranked RB15 behind Bucky Irving, Bashaw Toutin, and Randre Stevenson; would start ahead of Olly Gordon, DeAndre Swift, any Jets running back, and Chase Brown. Buying into the idea that the number three overall pick finally has full health in one of the best matchups.NegativeInjuryOct 23, 2026
Cardinals RB Jeremiah Love did not practice all week and is ruled out. Coach LaFleur indicated the Tyler Algier and Bam Knight split will continue, with Algier more on passing downs and Knight more on early downs.NegativeInjuryOct 21, 2026
Ian Hartitz notes Love has been banged up, limiting his role in the Falcons backfield. Combined with Tyler Allgeier, the backfield is averaging 6.4 yards per carry. If Love becomes active and healthy with injury certainty and no injury designation, Hartitz would rank him alongside Gentry, maybe a spot or two below, and would prefer him over Woody Marks if he gets full health confirmation.NegativeInjuryOct 16, 2026
Jeremiah Love is ruled out for the upcoming game after missing practice all week; Ian Hartitz notes the injury seems to have worsened over the last few weeks.PositiveProjectionOct 14, 2026
RB20 ranking despite third overall draft capital. Love has struggled significantly: 78 touches without a 20+ yard gain (tied fourth-most in league); ranks bottom 10 in tackles avoided, yards after contact per carry, and percentage of carries gaining 3+ yards after contact. Cardinals offensive line is bottom 10 in key metrics; lost left tackle Paris Johnson for season and Tyler Aier has been ineffective. Both ankles hurt; usage up and down. Offense relies on volume via Jacoby Brissett (lowest yards per attempt in league), but Love hasn't earned full trust as receiver and lacks explosive plays to offset volume limitations. One of only two running backs with at least 50 touches averaging under four yards per target and yards per carry (alongside JK Dobbins). Ian Hartitz sees no near-term improvement path for Love's fantasy scoring.PositiveProjectionOct 9, 2026
Jeremiah Love practiced in full on Friday and is not listed on the injury report. Ian Hartitz rates him as RB18 ahead of Will Shipley and Olly Gordon, noting a great game environment and desire to see more from the running game despite the Cardinals losing left tackle Paris Johnson for the season.NegativeInjuryOct 7, 2026
Jeremiah Love ranks RB18 but Ian Hartitz almost wants to move him lower due to injury concerns. Love injured his right ankle in Week 4 (after a left ankle injury in training camp) and is playing through pain; he has 66 touches without a gain of 20+ yards, tied for third-highest in the NFL. Hartitz notes Love said he wasn't injured post-game but expressed frustration about managing injuries: 'This is probably going to be the longest year of my life.' The situation won't change soon, and with the Cardinals losing starting left tackle Paris Johnson for the season to a bicep injury, Love's near-term outlook is limited despite long-term talent. Despite multiple trade offers in the last 24 hours, Hartitz projects improvement only in the second half of the season, cautioning it won't materialize in weeks 5–7, and notes potential undisclosed injury concerns as of Tuesday recording. Ahead of week 5, the outlook is not strong.NegativeBreakoutSep 23, 2026
Ranked RB23 by Ian Hartitz. Positioned as a lower-risk breakout candidate compared to Tutin, Satterfield, and Etienne because managers expected mediocre usage from Love coming into the season, making his eventual takeover "a matter of when, not if." Unlike the other three who had inflated pre-season expectations, Love's breakout carries less downside risk.NegativeRoleSep 16, 2026
Ranked RB22 and showed off elusiveness and explosiveness in Week 1, but received only 14 touches compared to 19 for Tyler Algier. With an ankle issue noted, Love may leap Algier on the depth chart sooner rather than later, but against the Seahawks' reigning third-ranked defense in PPR points per game allowed to opposing running backs, Love does not need to be jammed into lineups just yet.NegativeInjurySep 11, 2026
Jeremiah Love is questionable for Week 1 with a limited practice week, though reports suggest he will play. Ian Hartitz labels him a low-end RB2 and expresses concern about potential negative game script if the Cardinals fall behind early.NegativeInjurySep 7, 2026
Ian Hartitz notes that Jeremiah Love is highly questionable for Week 1, making him a risky start despite his potential role in the Cardinals' offense.PositiveValueSep 3, 2026
Liam Murphy ranks Jeremiah Love higher than Kairen Javvante despite Love's injury status. Murphy's ranking diverges from market perception, which may be discounting Love due to injury concerns, suggesting Love has value relative to his draft position.NegativeProjectionAug 30, 2026
JJ Zachariason ranks Jeremiah Love below Javonte Williams and Breece Hall in his draft preference.NegativeInjuryAug 28, 2026
Jeremiah Love is dealing with a high ankle sprain, a significant injury concern affecting his draft value and availability.NegativeInjuryAug 24, 2026
Ian Hartitz's directive for Jeremiah Love is simply to 'get healthy,' indicating Love is dealing with an injury or health concern that requires recovery before he can be fantasy-relevant for the Arizona Cardinals.NegativeInjuryAug 21, 2026
Ian Hartitz advises against targeting Jeremiah Love at the round 2-3 turn due to injury concerns. He explicitly warns against chasing injuries in fantasy football, noting they will find you soon enough, making Love a risky pick at that stage.NegativeBustAug 20, 2026
Ian Hartitz fades Jeremiah Love in round three, a position he held before Love's injury. Love is a Cardinals RB in a bottom-10 scoring offense with QB uncertainty (Jacobe Cobb or Carson Beck). Hartitz's core concern is QB instability during fantasy playoffs when Kade Clubick and Carson Beck could alternate under center, creating unpredictability when it matters most.NegativeInjuryAug 19, 2026
Jeremiah Love is currently sidelined with a high ankle sprain, which Ian Hartitz suggests might influence the team's decision to keep other running backs on the roster.NegativeInjuryAug 17, 2026
Suffered a high ankle sprain in preseason week one despite an impressive first-team performance (7 of 10 snaps with Cody Brassette). ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the team hopes he can return for week one. Hartitz recommends dropping him down overall ranks—potentially to round four range—and comparing him to tier-mates like Colston Loveland and other wide receivers in that range. Hartitz remains cautious about drafting injuries early and would not rank him outside the top 25 running backs at this point.NegativeRoleAug 12, 2026
JJ Zachariason expresses significant uncertainty about the Jeremiah Love backfield situation, noting multiple possible handcuff options including Tyler Aier, James Connor, and Trey Benson, indicating a muddled depth chart with no clear backup.PositiveRoleJul 24, 2026
Love is going to be force-fed the football as the Cardinals' lead back after being drafted third overall; the backup running back situation behind him is the key training camp storyline to monitor for fantasy purposes.PositiveDepth ChartJul 17, 2026
Jeremiah Love is mentioned as a potential injury scenario that could elevate Mike Washington Jr.'s value in the handcuff hierarchy.PositiveValueJul 16, 2026
Love is being reconsidered as a round three option rather than a round two pick, offering explosive potential that could allow drafters to focus on wide receiver depth later.PositiveSleeperJul 16, 2026
Despite the Cardinals' tough schedule and rebuilding situation, Love has a speed score of 110+ like Gibbs, Barkley, and ETN—the last first-round RBs with that metric—and could emerge as a top-12 running back even in a committee with Tyler Algier.NegativeUsageJul 14, 2026
Jeremiah Love may not receive the Christian McCaffrey-level 90%+ snap share needed to maximize his potential in the Cardinals' crowded backfield with Tyler Aier, James Connor, and Trey Benson.PositiveRoleJul 14, 2026
Jeremiah Love is a super gifted receiving running back who could surprise in the passing game, with evidence of explosive slot work and receiving ability at Notre Dame.PositiveProjectionJul 14, 2026
Ranked as RB15 with good running back talent, but concerns about the Cardinals' potential to be a bottom-five offense and the risk of garbage-time scoring if the team falls behind.PositiveProjectionNo date
Jeremiah Love earned career-high 26 touches in week 3 and is 100% healthy after a preseason ankle injury. He maintains a snap share advantage over Tyler Allgeier (63% vs 37%) and had a nice boost in overall touches despite the Cardinals running 81 plays last week, which explains why his numbers look better than his snap percentage alone would suggest. Love's comp from Notre Dame was a big-play machine with elite athleticism (hurdles, spin moves, 90-yard TD runs), though he trails Chase Brown and Marin Hampton in touches without 20+ yard gains this season. Facing the Giants defense that lost Brian Burns to a torn ACL, Love has a great matchup to generate the explosive plays his profile suggests. He has 51 combined carries and targets without a touchdown, but Ian Hartitz expects bigger and better things to come, suggesting positive regression is due despite the current TD drought.PositiveValueNo date
Ian Hartitz identifies Jeremiah Love as a high-value target, selecting him in the second round of a mock draft and labeling him the best available running back on the board.PositiveRoleNo date
Love was highlighted as an outlier RB option that earns targets, contrasting with Javonte Williams' lack of target involvement. Hartitz used Love as an example of a back whose target-earning profile makes him more valuable than typical dead-zone RBs, positioning him alongside Breece Hall as receiving backs worth considering.NegativeProjectionNo date
Davis Mattek Fantasy Football acknowledges Jeremiah Love has the talent to belong in the elite running back tier alongside Genty Cook, Walker, and Barkley, but depresses his fantasy value due to the Cardinals being 'the worst team in football.' Team quality is the primary factor preventing Love from elite-tier ranking despite his talent.NegativeBustNo date
Ian Hartitz fades Jeremiah Love at current ADP, explicitly stating "I don't really want to draft him either" due to being on one of the single worst offenses in the league. The fade applies the same reasoning as Breece Hall—Hartitz does not want to draft running backs in the top four rounds from such a poor offensive environment.PositiveValueNo date
Jeremiah Love is identified as a consensus top 36 pick alongside Breece Hall, though the analyst notes these picks can work out but represent a tier where they prefer to wait on running backs and wide receivers.
