Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs said he is proceeding on the belief that he will not be required to miss additional games beyond the six he has already sat out while on the NFL commissioner's exempt list, despite the emergence of further allegations against him.
Jacobs addressed the latest allegations with reporters, according to ESPN. The running back's comments indicate that he does not anticipate the new claims will extend his absence from the field.
The commissioner's exempt list has already kept Jacobs out of six games this season. The release of additional allegations raised the possibility of a longer absence, but Jacobs stated that he is not worried about missing more time.
For the Packers, Jacobs' availability remains a significant factor as the team navigates its schedule. The running back's status will continue to be monitored as the league reviews the matter.
