Yahoo Sports NFL on Josh Jacobs
From the article
The National Football League today notified Josh Jacobs of the Green Bay Packers that he will be removed from the Commissioner Exempt List on Oct. 19. He will be eligible to play in the Packers' Week 7 game on Oct. 25 after missing six games.
STACKED’s take
Jacobs eligible to return Week 7 after six-game exempt list absence; future suspension timeline unclear.
Josh Jacobs will be removed from the Commissioner Exempt List on Oct. 19 and will be eligible to play in the Packers' Week 7 game on Oct. 25 against the Detroit Lions after missing six games due to an ongoing NFL investigation into his conduct stemming from a May arrest involving misdemeanor battery and criminal damage to property charges. Jacobs reached a plea deal in September; the NFL's investigation remains ongoing as the league seeks access to video evidence of the incident. The games missed on the exempt list will count toward any potential future suspension, and Jacobs will have to return salary earned while on the exempt list and remain unpaid throughout any suspension. A standard suspension for a domestic violence case is six games under the collective bargaining agreement, though severity can extend that length.
