Josh Jacobs News
Sunday, September 27, 5:52 AM
The NFL has officially requested to view video of the domestic incident that resulted in Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs being arrested and charged with two misdemeanors last offseason, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Earlier this month, Jacobs pleaded no contest to one misdemeanor count of battery and one misdemeanor count of criminal damage to property. The court didn't issue any jail time for the Packers' running back, but this past week, a judge denied a request to permanently seal case records. That decision opened the door for the Packers to review the surveillance footage and potentially issue a very hefty punishment. This is a major step in the NFL's investigation, as being denied access to the footage would have made it difficult for the NFL to take action. Now, they'll presumably have a clear path to thoroughly complete their own investigation and determine if Jacobs will be suspended. In the meantime, he'll remain on the commissioner's exempt list, leaving MarShawn Lloyd and Chris Brooks atop the running back depth chart in Green Bay. The NFL's history of punishing players for domestic violence incidents has been somewhat inconsistent, but fantasy managers should brace for the possibility of a lengthy suspension that sidelines Jacobs for several months.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. News
Friday, October 2, 9:45 PM
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. will head into Sunday's matchup against the Arizona Cardinals injury-free after a full practice Friday. The third-year back out of Purdue was bothered by a knee issue that forced him to miss Wednesday's practice. However, he upgraded his participation each of the next two days as the team preps for the visiting Cardinals. Following a subpar preseason performance, Tracy has fallen out of favor with the Giants' coaching staff, totaling three carries for 17 yards across four snaps. He appears to be a distant fourth option behind backfield mates Najee Harris, Cam Skattebo, and Devin Singletary, and can be safely avoided by fantasy managers in all formats.
