Josh Jacobs Misses Second Straight Practice as Packers Weigh Week 15 Availability

Green Bay will set his status after Friday following a clean MRI.

Overview

  • Head coach Matt LaFleur said the running back will be evaluated after Friday's session and noted concern whenever a player cannot practice.
  • Jacobs said his knee stiffened late against the Bears and that scans were clean, with the focus now on reducing swelling.
  • He was the lone non-participant on Wednesday and sat out again Thursday, working on a rehab bike while 52 of 53 active players practiced.
  • Defensive end Lukas Van Ness and returner-receiver Savion Williams returned to practice on a limited basis after recent foot injuries.
  • If Jacobs cannot play Sunday at Denver, Emanuel Wilson is the likely lead back after logging 107 yards and two touchdowns in his Week 12 start, with practice-window options such as MarShawn Lloyd also eligible for activation.
