Other women contacted police about previous incidents with Packers' Josh Jacobs after his arrest
Police say three additional women reported separate alleged abuse incidents as the NFL continues its investigation into Josh Jacobs.
- On Monday, Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur confirmed the team plans to retain running back Josh Jacobs, stating he anticipates the player remaining on the roster despite new allegations surfacing last week.
- The Hobart-Lawrence Police Department released records on Friday detailing accounts from three additional women accusing Jacobs of past physical altercations, prompting NFL review. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said Saturday the league is investigating these claims.
- Lawyers representing Jacobs said he possesses a "substantial body of tangible evidence" disputing the allegations. They noted the NFL previously reviewed one woman's claim and determined no action was warranted.
- Jacobs pleaded no contest on September 10 to misdemeanor battery and criminal damage charges in Brown County Circuit Court. He returned to play two weeks ago, recording 32 carries for 75 yards and three touchdowns.
- Following a touchdown against the Carolina Panthers, Jacobs faced social media criticism for a celebration some interpreted as handcuffing, which he said honored the gospel song "Break Every Chain." The NFL confirmed its investigation remains ongoing.
