There is some more clarity around running back Josh Jacobs’ timeline for return from his broken finger.
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Jacobs could return in as few as 2-3 weeks.
Jacobs is set to undergo surgery to repair his broken finger later this week and Green Bay will decide afterward if it’s necessary for the running back to be placed on injured reserve.
Green Bay plays Minnesota at home on Sunday before an abbreviated Week 11 bye, as the club will take on the Rams in Los Angeles on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.
Jacobs has played just three games so far this season, rushing for 80 yards on 36 carries with one touchdown. He’s caught 11 passes for 68 yards with two TDs.
