Acme Packing Company on Josh Jacobs
From the article
Jacobs is currently on the commissioner exempt list, which prevents him from seeing the field or practice time — but he can still participate in meetings in the Packers' building. The NFL has yet to make a suspension announcement on Jacobs because they wanted to talk to the back and see the video before they made a ruling.
STACKED’s take
Jacobs on exempt list pending NFL suspension decision after judge denies video seal.
Jacobs is currently on the commissioner exempt list, which prevents him from seeing the field or practice time but allows him to participate in meetings in the Packers' building. The NFL has yet to make a suspension announcement because they wanted to view the video evidence before ruling. A judge denied the motion to permanently seal the video from Jacobs' battery case, meaning the NFL will now have access to the evidence through the Hobart-Lawrence Police Department. The precedent from the Ray Rice case limits the NFL to punishing a player once for a single action; if the video becomes public, the league cannot impose additional punishment beyond an initial suspension.
