In terms of some of the top stories going on in the National Football League, in case you missed it, this came down yesterday, but a very big story as far as fantasy is concerned, and also, as far as the NFL is concerned, is, Josh Jacobs was placed on the commissioner's exempt list.
Josh Jacobs placed on the commissioner's exempt list, and he is going to miss, it looks like, somewhere between, anywhere between six to 10 weeks, maybe four to six weeks.
There's still no determination as far as that goes.
But as of right now, the commissioner has decided with this investigation on domestic violence, which is currently going on, will Jacobs even be allowed to play this season?
There is some online speculation that there is video out with this, you know, alleged, incident that happened.
No one has seen it.
It has not been released.
But the Packers certainly have acted as well as, they picked up Caleb Johnson from the Pittsburgh Steelers, and so they have Johnson in the backfield.
Marshawn, Lloyd will also be a running back for them.
But as of right now, their running back room is a lot thinner than it was a week ago.
And for those of you who are interested in props or even sports betting or fantasy, at this point you have to believe that, some track record and precedent has been set, and I do not think you'll see Josh Jacobs in a Packers uniform anytime soon.
If not for a month, two months, three months, who, really knows?
