Josh Jacobs NFL Suspension Drama | NFL News

Josh Jacobs, Green Bay Packers running back, is on the NFL’s exempt list after facing misdemeanor charges—including battery and property damage—following a May altercation with his girlfriend. The incident reportedly began when she threw his phone after seeing messages from other women; Jacobs allegedly grabbed her arm, struggled, threw her to the ground, and took her phone. Surveillance footage supports her version of events. The district attorney filed charges last Thursday, and the NFL placed Jacobs on the exempt list three days later, halting his participation while allowing him to remain paid. Coach Matt LaFleur and GM Brian Gutekunst stand by Jacobs, trusting his account and preparing for either outcome as the league investigates. Jacobs’ legal team insists the exemption is temporary and believes he’ll return to play this season.
