Jacobs (finger) will undergo surgery Friday, and the Packers will have a better sense of his recovery timetable afterward, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Jacobs exited Green Bay's Week 9 win over the Patriots after fracturing his ring finger and has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings. A more precise recovery timeline is expected to be established after Jacobs undergoes surgery on the injured finger Friday, though initial estimates put his likely absence at 2-to-3 weeks on the optimistic side. MarShawn Lloyd, Kaleb Johnson and Pierre Strong are set to lead Green Bay's backfield while Jacobs is sidelined.
