Lions Get Bad Update on Josh Jacobs Availability for Packers: Report

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs will reportedly be removed from the Commissioner's Exempt List on Monday. This move clears Jacobs to return to practice and makes him eligible to play against the Detroit Lions in Week 7. The league's personal conduct policy investigation remains ongoing, but Jacobs's six-week absence will count toward any potential suspension unless the league issues a punishment exceeding six games.

Jacobs was placed on the exempt list on August 30 following a May 23 incident at his home, later pleading no contest to battery and criminal destruction of property charges. While Green Bay ranks last in rushing yards without Jacobs through five weeks, he was permitted to train individually at Lambeau Field and is expected to be ready after practicing.
