Josh Jacobs News
Tuesday, June 2, 8:52 AM
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (personal) returned to practice on Tuesday following his release from jail. Jacobs, who was arrested on five charges and booked into the Brown County Jail last week, could still face league discipline even though he was released from jail. The police report said that Jacobs was charged with battery, criminal damage of property, disorderly conduct, strangulation and suffocation, and intimidation of a victim. The NFL will presumably continue to investigate the scenario before deciding on a potential suspension. In the meantime, Jacobs will continue to participate in practices leading up to training camp and the preseason. He fell short of 1,000 rushing yards last season, but he still managed to score 14 touchdowns and finish as the overall RB13 in PPR leagues. If he avoids a suspension, he'll enter 2026 as a low-end RB1 or high-end RB2. If he misses time, MarShawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks would be in line to co-lead the backfield.
