Packers' Josh Jacobs has 91 combined yards, TD catch in return after domestic violence case
Josh Jacobs had 91 total yards and a touchdown catch in his first game back, but the Packers could not hold a late lead.
- On Sunday, Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs returned from the NFL exempt list, recording 91 total yards and a touchdown in the team's 20-17 loss to the Detroit Lions.
- Jacobs missed six games while on the exempt list following August charges for battery and criminal damage to property; he pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor counts last month regarding a May altercation.
- Head coach Matt LaFleur praised the return, stating, "Obviously, a spectacular play on the touchdown reception on the choice route." Jacobs added five receptions for 55 yards, including a 25-yard touchdown.
- Despite Jacobs' return, the Packers' ground game struggled, entering ranked last in the NFL. Backup running back MarShawn Lloyd recorded six carries for 20 yards as the offense relied heavily on passing.
- Jacobs could face further NFL discipline, as the league continues investigating the incident. He recently stated he is "grateful to be back on the team" while legal matters remain ongoing.
