Josh Jacobs fractured his finger in Sunday's win
The Packers rolled to a 45-27 win in New England on Sunday, but running back Josh Jacobs wasn't around for much of the game.
Key points
- Jacobs left the game in the first quarter after getting hurt while delivering a stiff-arm to the helmet of a Patriot defender during a run.
- "Hopefully we can do something to allow him to go out there, but he was just having a hard time gripping the ball." Kaleb Johnson led the team with 14 carries for 68 yards and Pierre Strong chipped in with 22 yards on eight carries.
Jacobs did not return and head coach Matt LaFleur called it a "tough loss" while giving an update on his condition after the game.
"He fractured a finger," LaFleur said, via a transcript from the Patriots.
