Josh Jacobs Faces Potential Six-Game Suspension

Packers running back Josh Jacobs pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of battery and criminal damage to property. While the property damage charge may be dismissed after 12 months, Jacobs remains on the commissioner's exempt list. The legal resolution allows the NFL to conclude its investigation, but Jacobs still faces a potential six-game suspension, which would delay his earliest possible return to the field until Week 7 of the 2026 season.
