Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs is expected to return to team practice on Wednesday after missing the first six games while on the NFL’s commissioner exempt list. Multiple outlets report Packers head coach Matt LaFleur gives updates on Jacobs’ readiness as the team prepares for its Week 7 game against the Detroit Lions.
The reports agree that Jacobs could be available for the Sunday matchup, though his exact game status is not confirmed and will be determined closer to kickoff. LaFleur also addresses other roster availability, including that defensive end Micah Parsons will not participate in practice this week. Separately, Yahoo Sports notes that guard Aaron Banks had his best week of practice last week, and LaFleur does not rule out Banks’ involvement as Green Bay continues its preparations.
