Pro Football Network picked one bounce-back candidate for each NFL team this season, and for the Green Bay Packers, the site selected newcomer Josh Jacobs to be that player.
After being the NFL’s rushing leader with 1,653 yards during the 2022 season, Jacobs’ production took a step back in 2023. He finished last year with 805 yards, averaging only 3.5 yards per attempt.
As always, there are numerous factors in play, one of which was that Jacobs was banged up, appearing in only 13 games. But in addition to that, the Raiders offense could never quite gain consistent traction either.
