    Josh Jacobs rushed the ball 18 times for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Eagles. He added three receptions on three targets for 40 yards.Jacobs was the driving force behind Green Bay's comeback attempt in the second half, with the highlight being an impressive 32-yard touchdown run at the close of the third quarter. He also chipped in long receptions of 15 and 14 yards to close his campaign on a strong note. After posting a career-best 16 touchdowns while tallying 1,671 yards from scrimmage during the regular season, Jacobs will almost certainly be back to lead the backfield for the Green Bay Packers in 2025.

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: No injury designation

    Josh Jacobs (wrist) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bears.Jacobs never seemed in real danger of missing the game and figures to occupy his usual role as Green Bay's workhorse. There is some chance of his usage eventually being scaled back, however, as the team's chances to move up from the seventh seed to No. 6 depend on the Cowboys beating the Commanders in a game that takes place at the same time as Green Bay's. In other words, the Green Bay Packers may start to pull starters if it looks like a victory won't help them avoid a first-round trip to Philadelphia.

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Limited by wrist injury

    Josh Jacobs was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a wrist injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.His ability to participate in any capacity for the first practice of the week suggests Jacobs likely will play Sunday against the Bears. Green Bay is only playing for the difference between the Nos. 6 and 7 seeds in the NFC playoffs in Week 18, but that doesn't mean the game will be treated different from any other.

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Rare miscue in loss to Vikings

    Josh Jacobs rushed the ball 17 times for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-25 win over the Green Bay Packers. He also lost a fumble.The Packers got off to a slow start offensively, and Jacobs played a key role in that by losing a fumble on the team's opening possession. He made up for the miscue later in the contest with a two-yard touchdown plunge, his 15th score of the campaign. Jacobs has now found the end zone in seven consecutive games, making him one of the most consistent fantasy performers at the position.

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Gains 107 yards in three quarters

    Josh Jacobs rushed 13 times for 69 yards and a touchdown while recording four receptions on as many targets for 38 yards in Monday's 34-0 win over New Orleans.Jacobs was able to carve out a strong fantasy line for managers in just a shade over two quarters of action in Monday's romp. His lack of carries over the final 25 minutes of the game isn't believed to be the result of an injury; instead, head coach Matt LaFleur likely just wanted to give the workhorse back a breather while the Green Bay Packers had the victory well in hand. Fantasy managers can expect a well-rested Jacobs in Week 17, when the Packers visit the Vikings on Sunday.

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Accounts for 136 yards in win

    Josh Jacobs rushed 26 times for 94 yards and a touchdown while catching all four of his targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Seahawks. He also lost a fumble.Jacobs was involved from the get-go with 44 scrimmage yards on seven carries and two catches on the opening drive, which concluded with a one-yard touchdown run. He finished the first half with 17 touches for 111 yards but struggled after halftime. Jacobs went backward in the third quarter with four carries for minus-5 yards, then fumbled in the fourth. He racked up some more yardage as the Green Bay Packers kept the clock running with the lead but was stuffed on fourth-and-2 with 5:55 left. Jacobs came six rushing yards shy of his fourth 100-yard rushing performance, but he's up to 12 rushing touchdowns in 14 games with the Packers and will look to add to that total against the Saints in a Monday night matchup in Week 16.

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Three more TDs in loss

    Josh Jacobs rushed 18 times for 66 yards and three touchdowns in the Green Bay Packers' 34-31 loss to the Lions on Thursday night.Jacobs had a fourth touchdown via a six-yard reception nullified by an offensive pass interference penalty on Christian Watson with just under five minutes remaining in the game. The standout back found the end zone on the ground from one, six and four yards out in the second, third and fourth quarters, respectively, his second three-touchdown effort of the season. Jacobs also officially went without a catch for the third time overall in 2024, but his near complete domination of Green Bay's backfield and his massive red-zone usage keeps him as an elite option in a Week 15 road matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday night, Dec. 15.
