Josh Jacobs Could Return to Practice Late Next Week

Friday, August 14, 11:38 AM

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (groin) could return to practice late next week. Head coach Matt LaFleur said Friday that Jacobs could "potentially" get back on the field during the upcoming week, according to Rob Demovsky, but added that it would not be until later in the week. Jacobs has been out since Aug. 6 with the groin injury and was already ruled out for this week's practices. He is coming off a 2025 season in which he rushed 234 times for 929 yards and 13 touchdowns in 15 games, while adding 36 catches for 282 yards and another score. Green Bay has been able to give MarShawn Lloyd extended first-team work while Jacobs is sidelined, but there has been no indication that Jacobs' lead role is in question. LaFleur's latest comments are encouraging, though his wording still leaves some uncertainty. Jacobs does not have a firm return date yet.

Zamir White Works Out for the Cowboys

Tuesday, June 16, 6:39 PM

Free-agent running back Zamir White worked out for the Dallas Cowboys in recent days, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The Cowboys are exploring help at the position in June. Fowler also reported that White recently worked out for the Miami Dolphins. The former fourth-rounder in 2022 out of the University of Georgia by the Las Vegas Raiders spent the first four years of his NFL career in Sin City, handling 198 carries for 736 yards (3.7 yards per tote) and two touchdowns in 45 games (nine starts). He added 25 catches on 33 targets for 152 receiving yards. The 26-year-old is expected to work out for more teams as training camp approaches this summer. In Dallas, Javonte Williams is the Cowboys' clear lead back after breaking out in 2025 in his first year with the club. Behind him, the team currently has very little experience with Jaydon Blue, Phil Mafah, Malik Davis, and Israel Ibanikanda.
