Why It Matters: There is no timetable for Jacobs, but it seems like he will miss multiple weeks because of the injury. Fantasy players should monitor the situation to see if the Packers add a running back before the trade deadline. Kaleb Johnson will likely see an increased role with Jacobs out and can be a waiver wire pickup if available.
