Packers Activate Jacobs, Announce Roster Changes Ahead of Sunday's Game
Josh Jacobs is set for his season debut after Green Bay activated him, giving the Packers a needed boost to a last-place rushing attack.
- The Green Bay Packers officially activated running back Josh Jacobs on Saturday, clearing him to make his 2026 season debut Sunday against the Detroit Lions.
- Jacobs spent the first 6 weeks on the NFL's commissioner exempt list following a May arrest, for which he pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery and property damage charges.
- Green Bay ranks last in the NFL with 59.8 rushing yards per game, and head coach Matt LaFleur hopes Jacobs can provide a spark to the struggling offense.
- After practicing this week, Jacobs demonstrated the conditioning necessary to return, though LaFleur noted the veteran still needs time to fully reacclimate to football activities.
- While cleared to play, the NFL's personal conduct policy investigation remains active, and Jacobs could face further discipline, potentially including a suspension exceeding the 6 games already missed.
