Josh Jacobs News
Friday, September 4, 9:14 AM
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has had his initial court appearance moved up from November 17 to September 10, according to online court records. Jacobs was charged in late August on two misdemeanor counts of battery and criminal damage stemming from his May 26 arrest, and he was placed on the NFL's Commissioner's Exempt List shortly thereafter. The eighth-year veteran is not permitted to practice or attend games while on the list, and while there is no timeline for the league to make a final determination on any further suspension, the accelerated legal process could help to bring about clarity sooner rather than later. After being drafted in the high-end RB2 range for much of the summer, Jacobs has fallen below RB25 in more recent drafts, with MarShawn Lloyd climbing rapidly.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. News
Saturday, September 5, 8:00 AM
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (neck) is among the players projected to be inactive in Week 1 by Giants beat writer Patricia Traina of Sports Illustrated. Injury could be the reason why Tracy Jr. does not play, as he suffered a stinger in the Giants' final preseason game. However, Tracy Jr.'s place in the crowded Giants backfield is also in question entering the year. Despite topping 1,000 scrimmage yards in each of his first two seasons in New York, Tracy Jr. may currently be behind all three of Cam Skattebo, Najee Harris, and Devin Singletary on the Giants' running back depth chart. Barring an injury or a trade elsewhere before the start of the regular season, fantasy managers may want to avoid Tracy Jr. in drafts ahead of 2026.
