AutoDraft Pro AI

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs sustained a left knee contusion but has avoided a major injury, as confirmed by coach Matt LaFleur. Jacobs, who left Sunday's game against the Giants in the first half after rushing for 40 yards on seven carries, could potentially play against the Vikings this Sunday, pending a reduction in swelling. Emanuel Wilson filled in for Jacobs, rushing for 40 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries in his absence.
