Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs sat out Thursday's practice with a groin injury.

Jacobs, 26, signed a four-year, $48 million contract with the Packers in free agency in March.

The two-time Pro Bowl selection played his first five seasons with the Raiders and won the rushing title in 2022 with 1,653 yards, being named All-Pro that season.

Jacobs ran for 5,545 yards and 46 touchdowns in 73 games (72 starts) with Oakland/Las Vegas.

In Green Bay, Jacobs replaces Aaron Jones and joins a backfield with AJ Dillon and rookie MarShawn Lloyd.

Rookie linebacker Edgerrin Cooper, a second-round pick, also missed Thursday's session with a hip issue.
