JOSH JACOBS NEWS

Sees brief action Saturday Jacobs gained seven yards on his only carry and caught his only target for a two-yard loss in Saturday's 23-10 preseason win over the Browns.

Impact The running back dealt with a minor groin injury earlier in the week, but Jacobs was healthy for the Packers' preseason opener and played one series before calling it a day. The former Raider has topped 1,100 scrimmage yards in each of his first five seasons in the NFL, but Green Bay's coaching staff has suggested Jacobs will be used a little more frequently as a receiver during his first season with his new club. Jacobs could see a bigger workload in next Sunday's preseason clash with the Broncos as he gets ready for Week 1.

No limitations in practice Jacobs is participating in 11-on-11s at Tuesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jacobs has quickly returned to full participation after a groin injury cost him a few practices last week and then limited his participation to individual drills for a few days thereafter. He's locked in atop the depth chart, ahead of veteran AJ Dillon and rookie third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd. Dillon took 21 of the 26 first-team snaps at Saturday's Family Night practice, with Lloyd handling the other five, per Justin Mosqueda of Acme Packing Co.

Participating in practice Jacobs (groin) is participating in Saturday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jacobs ended up missing just two practices with a groin injury that the running back deemed was "just a tweak." Expect the veteran to continue pushing for a significant role in an offense that has featured the running back position often during Matt LaFleur's tenure as head coach.

Not worried about groin Jacobs (groin) said Friday that he's healthy enough to play in a game and is dealing with a "tweak" more so than an actual injury, Zach Kruse of USA Today reports.

Impact Jacobs isn't worried about the groin injury, and it sounds like he won't miss too many practices. He was held out Thursday for the first time during training camp, which freed up more reps for backups AJ Dillon and MarShawn Lloyd.

Dealing with groin injury Jacobs isn't practicing Thursday because of a groin injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact A hamstring injury limited Jacobs during the offseason program, but this seems to be his first health issue since the start of training camp. His absence leaves AJ Dillon as the Packers' top running back, with rookie third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd also a candidate to take first-team reps.
