Green Bay Packers Running Back Josh Jacobs Ruled Out For Game Against Minnesota Vikings
The Green Bay Packers have officially ruled out Running Back Josh Jacobs for today’s game against the Minnesota Vikings. He suffered a knee injury in last week’s game against the New York Giants. He was slated to work out on the field before today’s game. He ultimately never worked out. Green Bay decided to play it cautiously with a game on Thanksgiving Day. How will the Green Bay Packers fare without the star player in the backfield?
Green Bay’s Offense Without Jacobs
Jacobs has been great this season. He is second in the league with 11 rushing touchdowns. Green Bay’s offense has been inconsistent this season. The offense will now head into Week 12 without arguably its best offensive weapon.
In the absence of Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson will be the lead back. The third-year running back has 220 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown this year. Green Bay’s running back room will face a stiff test against the Minnesota Vikings. Minnesota has the league’s 11th-best rushing defense. The Packers will look to notch a big win against a Vikings team in freefall. The NFL world will be waiting to see if they can get the job done.
