Packers Predicted to Release New Playmaker After Josh Jacobs’ Return
The Green Bay Packers may have to make a somewhat painful alteration to their roster next week to make room for running back Josh Jacobs. The post Packers Predicted to Release New Playmaker After Josh Jacobs’ Return appeared first on HEAVY.
The Green Bay Packers plan to reintroduce running back Josh Jacobs to their roster after his return from an injury-induced absence. This comes as a result of the team's recent win over the Dallas Cowboys, which puts them at a 4-2 record. The addition should bolster the offensive line, but it may force Pierre Strong Jr. off the 53-man roster as Strong is the most likely candidate to be cut.
Ken Ingalls, a Packers cap expert, predicts that Strong will likely be released in the coming days. However, Strong could potentially earn more money by sitting out the rest of the season, collecting termination pay, and later signing back to the practice squad. Meanwhile, Jacobs may face a potential NFL suspension, which could further impact the decision regarding Strong's future with the team.
