When you’re second in standings and playing your divisional rivals, any team would want a good lineup, but you can’t always have that. The Green Bay Packers have made a final decision for star player Josh Jacobs in their Week 11 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The Packers seem to have chosen a cautious approach with a short turnaround before their Thanksgiving game in Detroit. “Josh Jacobs pushed all week to play despite his bone bruise and thigh contusion. But the Packers decided to play it cautiously with a short week upcoming,” NFL insider Tom Pelissero recently reported on X. “There was no pregame workout, just a conversation when Jacobs arrived. There is hope he could play Thanksgiving at Detroit.” The news confirms the team’s decision to hold him out. While the Packers won’t have their top rusher tonight, there is optimism that he could return for Thursday’s divisional showdown against the Lions. The focus now shifts to Jacobs’ recovery timeline as Green Bay eyes a critical stretch of games. 

The Packers face a tough call on Josh Jacobs ahead of Week 11, with a short week looming and major implications for their playoff push.
