Josh Jacobs Set to Return From Commissioner's Exempt List

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs will be removed from the commissioner's exempt list on Monday, Oct. 19, making him eligible for his 2026 debut in Week 7 against the Detroit Lions. Jacobs spent six games on paid administrative leave following his arrest and subsequent plea deal for two misdemeanor charges involving his ex-girlfriend. The NFL's ongoing personal conduct investigation remains active, and further discipline could potentially impact his status.
