Josh Jacobs Logs Reception In Limited Preseason Action
4 months agoGreen Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs recorded a rush attempt and a reception in the Packers' preseason opener against the Cleveland Browns. Jacobs and the starters only lasted three plays. The Packers offense scored on the third play from scrimmage on a 65-yard touchdown pass from Jordan Love to Dontayvion Wicks. Jacobs was on the field for all three plays. His lone rush attempt went for seven yards and his reception went for a loss of two yards. Jacobs ran a short route on the touchdown pass as an outlet for Love. As expected, it appears that Jacobs will be heavily involved in the offense. However, it remains to be seen if he will share time in the backfield with either MarShawn Lloyd or AJ Dillon. The answer to that question may not come until the regular season gets underway in September. Jacobs has a Yahoo! ADP of 34 and is a borderline RB1 heading into fantasy football drafts.
