Packers running back Josh Jacobs will make his 2026 season debut against the Lions after spending the first six weeks on the NFL's commissioner exempt list.
The Green Bay Packers have activated running back Josh Jacobs to their 53-man roster ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Detroit Lions. Jacobs missed the first six games of the 2026 season on the NFL commissioner exempt list following a May arrest, but he was cleared from exempt status earlier in the week.
Jacobs pleaded no contest on September 10 to misdemeanor battery and property damage charges, and the league's personal conduct policy investigation remains ongoing. Any eventual suspension would credit the six missed games, providing immediate help to a Green Bay rushing offense that currently ranks last in the league.
