Packers Running Back Josh Jacobs Leaves Win Against Giants with a Knee Injury
Josh Jacobs is questionable to return after a knee injury, with Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks stepping up to maintain Packers' backfield effectiveness.
- On Sunday at MetLife Stadium, Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs left the game with a knee injury after being evaluated in the medical tent and taken to the locker room.
- On the goal-line drive that followed, Jacobs appeared to hurt his left knee when knocked out of bounds with 9:12 remaining but remained on the drive that ended with a 1-yard touchdown and 13:54 left.
- Before departing, Jacobs had seven carries and entered the day second in the NFL with 11 rushing touchdowns.
- With Jacobs out, Emanuel Wilson took over, scoring on an 11-yard touchdown and logging 11 carries while Chris Brooks projects as the receiving back for the Packers' offense.
- Coach Matt LaFleur said any time a player of Jacobs' magnitude doesn't finish a game you're concerned and the injury compounds other problems after Jordan Love left briefly with a left shoulder issue on the same drive.
