Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur praised Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs' power and versatility while making remarks regarding the team's current RB1 and their old one, Aaron Jones, who is now leading the Minnesota Vikings' backfield.

"Definitely two different style of backs," LaFleur told ESPN's Dan Graziano. "Aaron is more of a slasher, make you miss, where Jacobs is a power, like, gonna-try-to-run-you-over kind of guy. But the one thing they do have in common is they're both legitimate threats out of the backfield, I would say. Both have really good hands.
