Packers to Make Game-Time Call on Josh Jacobs vs. Vikings

The knee remains tender despite no structural damage, with a Thanksgiving trip to Detroit influencing caution.

Overview

  • Jacobs is officially questionable and will be tested in pregame warmups before a final decision, per reports from ESPN and NFL Network.
  • Sources say he is pushing to play, though his status remains up in the air due to ongoing knee tenderness from last week.
  • Jacobs missed Wednesday’s practice, then was limited Thursday and Friday in a day-to-day progression.
  • Green Bay elevated running back Pierre Strong Jr. on Saturday as a contingency for Week 12.
  • If Jacobs sits, Emmanuel Wilson is expected to handle the lead role after logging 40 yards and a touchdown in relief, while Jacobs’ season line sits at 169 carries for 648 yards and 11 touchdowns.
