Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst says he “certainly would expect” running back Josh Jacobs to be on the team and playing in 2026, according to reports.
The comments are presented as an expectation from the Packers’ front office rather than a formal contract announcement. One outlet frames the statement as part of broader outlook for Jacobs’ status going into 2026, while another emphasizes the general manager’s direct wording. Coverage also links the news to how Jacobs may be viewed in fantasy contexts, though that depends on factors such as team decisions and contract details that are not described in the reports.
