Packers' Josh Jacobs: Could return in 2-to-3 weeks
Jacobs will undergo surgery on his broken right ring finger later this week and could be cleared to play in as soon as 2-to-3 weeks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Jacobs will be sidelined for Sunday's game against the Vikings, but with the Packers on bye in Week 11, the running back has a shot at returning to action as soon as Week 12 versus the Rams on Nov. 25. The Packers will wait for Jacobs' surgery to be completed before deciding Saturday whether he'll require a stint on injured reserve -- and the automatic four-game absence that comes with it -- or if he'll remain on the 53-man roster. For however long Jacobs ends up being sidelined, the Packers are likely to lean on Kaleb Johnson and MarShawn Lloyd (knee) as their top options on the ground.

Packers' Josh Jacobs: Finger surgery on tap, IR a possibility
When asked if IR is a possibility for Jacobs (finger), coach Matt LaFleur said Monday, "I think everything is a possibility," Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Per Tom Pelissero of Netflix, LaFleur confirmed Monday that Jacobs will undergo surgery on his fractured ring finger. As a result of the looming procedure, Pelissero adds that that the running back is out indefinitely, which supports the notion that an IR stint for Jacobs could be on the table. Given that MarShawn Lloyd is dealing with a knee injury that sidelined him Sunday, at the moment Kaleb Johnson is Green Bay's top healthy back, with Pierre Strong also on hand. However, it's possible help could be on the way, and outside RB help may not be needed, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, as Chris Brooks (ankle) could be nearing a return from IR.

Packers' Josh Jacobs: Reportedly set for finger surgery
Jacobs is in line to undergo surgery on his injured finger this week and is expected to miss a maximum of three weeks, according to Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports.
We'll look for confirmation of this report from the Packers, but it looks like the team will be without its top back this weekend against the Vikings, at a minimum. With MarShawn Lloyd dealing with a knee injury that sidelined him in Week 9, Kaleb Johnson profiles as Green Bay's top healthy back, with Pierre Strong also in the mix.

Packers' Josh Jacobs: Uncertain to play Week 10
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur acknowledged after Sunday's 45-27 win over the Patriots that Jacobs' (finger) availability for the team's Week 10 matchup with the Vikings is uncertain, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "Hopefully we can do something to allow him to go out there," LaFleur said of Jacobs. "But he was just having a hard time gripping the ball."
Jacobs was limited to just 10 snaps before leaving Sunday's game in the first quarter after fracturing his right ring finger while attempting to stiff-arm a defender at the end of his fourth and final carry of the day. He made two trips to the locker room with the hope of adding enough protection to his hand to enable him to return to the game, but the Packers ultimately determined that Jacobs wouldn't have been able to securely grip the football if he had checked back in. With MarShawn Lloyd (knee) inactive against the Patriots and Jacobs leaving early, Kaleb Johnson (14 carries for 68 yards) ended up finishing as the Packers' rushing leader on the day.

Packers' Josh Jacobs: Has fractured finger
Jacobs fractured his finger during Sunday's 45-27 win over the Patriots, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Head coach Matt LaFleur revealed the nature of Jacobs' injury after the game. Jacobs exited the win with what was initially deemed a hand injury. He was unable to return against the Patriots, but the Packers are hoping Jacobs will be available for Week 10 against the Vikings. If Jacobs can't go, Pierre Strong, Kaleb Johnson and possibly MarShawn Lloyd (knee) would be Green Bay's backfield options.

Packers' Josh Jacobs: Exits game with hand injury
Jacobs (hand) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Prior to hurting his hand, Jacobs had carried four times for five yards in the contest. Given that MarShawn Lloyd (knee) is inactive Sunday, Pierre Strong and Kaleb Johnson are currently Green Bay's RB options against New England.

Packers' Josh Jacobs: Doesn't expect to miss additional action
Jacobs doesn't anticipate missing any additional game action due to the release of additional allegations of physical and verbal abuse against him, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
"With all the evidence that we have and that they have at this point, it's not one of those things where I'm sitting back on my hands like, 'OK, am I going to play this week?'" Jacobs said. "I'm not worried about feeling like I'm going to miss any more time than I already have." Jacobs spent the first six weeks of the season on the Commissioner's Exempt List. Those six absences would count toward any suspension the NFL hands down to Jacobs in connection with the league's investigation into his possible violations of the league's personal conduct policy.

Packers' Josh Jacobs: Expected to remain with team
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that the Packers are aware of the prior physical abuse allegations involving Jacobs that recently surfaced and "anticipate him being a member" of the team moving forward, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Before making his season debut Week 7, Jacobs missed the Packers' first six games after he was placed on the commissioner's exempt list after he was officially charged Aug. 27 with two misdemeanors stemming from his May arrest for a domestic incident. The legal process related to that incident has since played out, but Jacobs' status with the team had been called into question after the NFL announced Saturday that it was reviewing additional allegations of physical and verbal abuse from three different women in incidents dating back to April 2021 that were released following a public records request. Unless the NFL elects to place him back on the exempt list while it reviews the incidents in question, Jacobs looks like he'll be available for Green Bay's next game Sunday at New England. Despite the missed time to begin the season, Jacobs has immediately settled back into a lead role in the backfield and has scored three touchdowns in two games, but he's mustered just 75 yards on 32 carries (2.3 average) to go with 11 receptions for 68 yards on 13 targets.
