The Green Bay Packers, along with their quarterback Jordan Love, are confident in their ability to secure a championship in 2024. While it’s common for every NFL team to start the season with high hopes, realistically, only a handful of teams have a genuine chance of achieving this goal.
The Packers could very well fit into both categories. Today at practice, the Packers received a significant boost to their offense.
After working his way back from a hamstring injury, Josh Jacobs is no longer being eased in. He took the first reps of the team period for the first time this spring. Although the team was just in shorts, Jacobs displayed impressive burst on a run to the right sideline, indicating his hamstring is in good shape.
Josh Jacobs being fully back in action is a significant boost for the Packers’ offense. Hamstring injuries have been a problematic issue for the franchise lately, so witnessing their latest offensive weapon regain his health is a huge relief. Here are a few videos of Jacobs at practice
Josh Jacobs’ sole playoff appearance was in a game against the Cincinnati Bengals in 2021. The Bengals went on to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl that year.
Despite amassing 83 rushing yards and 44 receiving yards on four catches, Josh Jacobs had minimal involvement when it counted the most. During a fourth-quarter comeback, the Raiders reached the Bengals’ red zone twice, but Jacobs touched the ball only once.
Now with the Green Bay Packers, Jacobs is eager for the opportunity to participate in more playoff games and make a more significant impact. Given his substantial contract, the Packers may look to him to lead their young offense to greater playoff success.
