Jacobs rushed 26 times for 94 yards and a touchdown while catching all four of his targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Seahawks. He also lost a fumble. Jacobs was involved from the get-go with 44 scrimmage yards on seven carries and two catches on the opening drive, which concluded with a one-yard touchdown run. He finished the first half with 17 touches for 111 yards but struggled after halftime. Jacobs went backward in the third quarter with four carries for minus-5 yards, then fumbled in the fourth. He racked up some more yardage as the Packers kept the clock running with the lead but was stuffed on fourth-and-2 with 5:55 left. Jacobs came six rushing yards shy of his fourth 100-yard rushing performance, but he's up to 12 rushing touchdowns in 14 games with the Packers and will look to add to that total against the Saints in Week 16.

Jacobs rushed 18 times for 66 yards and three touchdowns in the Packers' 34-31 loss to the Lions on Thursday night. Jacobs had a fourth touchdown via a six-yard reception nullified by an offensive pass interference penalty on Christian Watson with just under five minutes remaining in the game. The standout back found the end zone on the ground from one, six and four yards out in the second, third and fourth quarters, respectively, his second three-touchdown effort of the season. Jacobs also officially went without a catch for the third time overall in 2024, but his near complete domination of Green Bay's backfield and his massive red-zone usage keeps him as an elite option in a Week 15 road matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday night, Dec. 15.
Jacobs (calf) doesn't have a designation for Thursday's game at Detroit, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Jacobs operated with a cap on his practice reps Monday through Wednesday due to a calf injury, but it won't stop him from continuing to lead Green Bay's backfield Thursday. Over his last five contests, he's averaged 22.4 touches for 118 yards from scrimmage and 1.4 touchdowns per game, making him a must-start option for fantasy purposes.
Jacobs (calf) was a limited practice participant Tuesday. The Packers have listed Jacobs as a limited participant on both of their first two Week 14 injury reports, but head coach Matt LaFleur hasn't offered any indications that the star running back is at risk of missing Thursday's game at Detroit. Jacobs could just be getting some extra maintenance for his calf after logging at least 15 touches in each of Green Bay's last eight games.
Jacobs was limited at Monday's practice due to a calf injury Jacobs has strung together five consecutive games with at least 100 yards from scrimmage, a stretch in which he's accumulated 112 touches for 590 total yards and seven rushing TDs. As the Packers gear up for Thursday's contest at Detroit, though, he's tending to a health concern, so his status will be one to monitor as the week goes on.
Jacobs rushed the ball 19 times for 43 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 30-17 win over the Dolphins. He added four receptions on four targets for 74 yards. Jacobs was inefficient on the ground, though he punched in a one-yard touchdown late in the first quarter to pad his performance. He also chipped in as a receiver, highlighted by a long 49-yard catch and run midway through the fourth quarter. Overall, Jacobs found the end zone for the fourth time in his last five games and has topped 100 yards from scrimmage in each of those contests.
Jacobs rushed 26 times for 106 yards and three touchdowns without recording a reception in Sunday's 38-10 win over the 49ers. Jacobs gave fantasy managers a scare when he limped off the field after scoring his second touchdown of the contest. Fortunately, Green Bay's leading rusher was only dealing with cramping and was able to return and finish off the victory. Jacobs added four more rushing attempts and a third score following his brief exit, assuring those rostering the tailback that he avoided a potential stint on the sidelines. The three-score effort helped the bruising rusher surpass his season rushing and touchdown totals from last year in two fewer games since joining the Packers. Expect a well-hydrated Jacobs to be a key part of Green Bay's attack against Miami on Thanksgiving.
