Josh Jacobs

NegativeUsage0:01

Josh Jacobs has been placed on the NFL Commissioner's Exempt List, which effectively functions as an indefinite suspension. Historical precedent for players on this list, including Adrian Peterson, Greg Hardy, Josh Brown, Reuben Foster, Kareem Hunt, and Jabrill Peppers, indicates that missed playing time is the standard outcome, even if legal charges are eventually dropped.

0:00An absolute bombshell in fantasy
0:01football. Josh Jacobs has been placed on
0:03the NFL Commissioner's Exempt List,
0:04which means he's basically suspended for
0:06as long as Roger Goodell says. The only
0:08other players who have been on the
0:10Commissioner's Exempt List all ended up
0:11missing time. Adrian Peterson, Greg
0:13Hardy, Josh Brown, Reuben Foster, Kareem
0:15Hunt, and Jabrill Peppers. Even when the
0:17charges ended up being dropped in the
0:19end, this all resulted in missed time.
0:21It also opens it up for the Green Bay
0:23Packers to maybe just go ahead and
0:25release or wave Josh Jacobs, although
0:27they have said the opposite. Clearly, we
0:29do have to move Marshawn Lloyd
0:30significantly up in our rankings. I
0:32think I'm going to move him right about
0:34to where Jonathan Brooks is going, a
0:36round six, round seven pick. Obviously,
0:38Lloyd has struggled with health, but
0:39maybe I'm wrong. What are you guys doing
0:41with Marshawn Lloyd in fantasy football?
