Packers RB Josh Jacobs participates in practice
Sep 28, 2025; Arlington, Texas, USA; Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (10) hands the ball off to running back Josh Jacobs (8) during the game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers at AT&T Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-Imagn Images Packers running back Josh Jacobs participated in practice segments open for media viewing on Thursday, catching passes out of the backfield and running after receptions.
Within the short viewing period, Jacobs showed no signs of physical limitations. The Packers (6-3-1) later revealed he was a limited participant due to a knee injury.
Packers quarterback Jordan Love (shoulder) said he's "feeling good" and plans to play Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings (4-6). Love and Jacobs were sidelined by injuries in Green Bay's win over the New York Giants last week. Love only missed seven snaps and was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
What the skill-position assembly around Love might be on Sunday is still unclear. Five of the team's top six receivers were on the injury report to start the week and that doesn't include Jayden Reed (foot, clavicle), who caught passes on the JUGS machine Thursday. Reed has been on injured reserve since September and underwent surgery for a Jones fracture in his foot.
Love's No. 1 receiver Romeo Doubs (wrist) was seen only during parts of Thursday's practice. He was listed as a limited participant.
Jacobs, 27, was replaced in the backfield last week by Emanuel Wilson. But head coach Matt LaFleur insists the team's RB1 is "truly day-to-day" and could start when the Vikings come to Green Bay on Sunday.
Jacobs is fifth in the NFL with 169 carries and has 11 rushing touchdowns, which ranks second in the NFL. He has rushed for 648 yards.
Jacobs is going for his fourth game in a row at home with 100 or more yards from scrimmage and 10th in row at Lambeau with a rushing TD.
