Yahoo Sports NFL on Josh Jacobs
From the article
Jacobs grabbed [the victim] and threw her to the ground and she struck her head, suffering an injury. Jacobs then took her phone from her while she was on the ground... if video exists the video eventually will emerge. And seeing the video will spark a much stronger action than knowing the video exists. It could be enough to prompt the NFL to place Jacobs on paid leave... Regardless of whether Jacobs is placed on paid leave, he's subject to a baseline suspension of six games.
STACKED’s take
Josh Jacobs faces six-game baseline suspension; video evidence could trigger paid leave or release.
Packers running back Josh Jacobs faces misdemeanor charges (battery and criminal damage to property) arising from a domestic incident captured on his home surveillance system. The incident report describes Jacobs grabbing and throwing the victim to the ground, causing head injury, then taking her phone while she was on the ground. The source notes that if video emerges publicly—as happened with Ray Rice—it could prompt the NFL to place Jacobs on paid leave or the Packers to release him. Regardless of league action, Jacobs is subject to a baseline suspension of six games either through accepting responsibility or via independent NFL investigation.
