Josh Jacobs Set for Finger Surgery Following Week 9 Fracture

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is scheduled to undergo surgery Friday after fracturing his ring finger during a Week 9 victory over the Patriots. Jacobs has already been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, and initial optimistic estimates suggest a recovery timeline of 2-to-3 weeks. The Packers expect a clearer return schedule following Friday's procedure, leaving MarShawn Lloyd, Kaleb Johnson, and Pierre Strong to lead the backfield.
