Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (groin) will miss "at least" another week of practice, according to head coach Matt LaFleur.
Huddle Up: Jacobs being out isn't great news, but it isn't bad either at this point. He can still be regarded as one of the better fantasy running backs in 2026 and be an RB1 in your fantasy lineup.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs (groin) did not practice on Thursday, Aug. 6. The injury isn't considered to be long-term.
Huddle Up: Jacobs being healthy long-term means he is still set to be a potential RB1 this season. Until told otherwise, fantasy players should treat their Jacobs shares as business as usual.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs ranked 17th in yards after contact last season after ranking third in the category the previous season.
Huddle Up: Jacobs' yards per carry also dropped, but while he failed to reach 1,000 rushing yards, he did score 14 total touchdowns. Jacobs has 30 scores in his two seasons in Green Bay, and he should handle a majority of the touches again in 2026. Jacobs projects as a solid RB2.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs was at the team's practice during OTAs on Tuesday, June 2.
Huddle Up: While Jacobs lets the process play out regarding his recent legal issues, he remains an option to be an RB1 in your lineups for 2026. A suspension could change things, but until that becomes clearer, proceed with caution as it relates to any interest in drafting or acquiring Jacobs for the 2026 season.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs was released from jail Wednesday, May 27, and the Brown County District Attorney's office is not ready to make a formal charging decision in the case. It is believed that additional evidence may exist to determine if Jacobs should be charged in the future.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see if Jacobs will be charged at some point in the case. He is a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues when available, but players will need to see if he will face any NFL discipline at some point.

Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs has two years and $25 million left on his contract and would carry $6.25 million of dead cap space if released. It would be $3.125 million in 2026 and 2027 after June 1.
Huddle Up: There hasn't been any indication the Packers would release him after he had domestic violence charges filed against him. The team isn't exactly deep at the position with Chris Brooks, MarShawn Lloyd and Pierre Strong on the depth chart behind Jacobs. If he were to miss time to suspension, they'll likely need to make a move to bring in RB help. Jacobs was the RB13 in PPR leagues over 15 games last season. This will certainly drop him to RB2 range with a potential suspension hovering over him.
