Jahmyr Gibbs 2026 NFL Season Preview
Jahmyr Gibbs enters the 2026-27 NFL season with a dramatically improved betting outlook after becoming Detroit’s unquestioned workhorse. The 24-year-old signed a three-year, $67.5 million extension that can reach $75.75 million, cementing his long-term role with the Lions.
More importantly for bettors, David Montgomery is gone after absorbing significant goal-line work and 20 touchdowns over the previous two seasons. Detroit now plans to feature Gibbs as its bell-cow, with Dan Campbell potentially giving him 20 to 25 touches per game.
Isiah Pacheco was added to the backfield but is currently dealing with an MCL strain, while Sione Vaki provides additional depth. Gibbs has returned to practice following a minor back issue and enters Week 1 healthy. Increased rushing volume and goal-line opportunities make his season-long rushing and touchdown markets especially intriguing.

Favorite bets on Jahmyr Gibbs
Jahmyr Gibbs already scored 13 rushing touchdowns last season while sharing valuable goal-line work with David Montgomery. Now Montgomery is gone, and Gibbs enters 2026 as Detroit’s bell-cow back. With Isiah Pacheco injured and projections placing Gibbs around 13 to 15 rushing scores, increased red-zone volume makes this line attractive.
