Josh Jacobs' Lawyers Denounce 3 Old Abuse Claims as NFL Reviews Case File

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Nov 1

Summary

  • Three previously unreported allegations from 2021 and 2022 prompted Josh Jacobs' lawyers to accuse Wisconsin police of releasing an uninvestigated file that is "character assassination" and threatens the Packers running back's career.
  • The attorneys said the file contains only hearsay from phone interviews taken years later, and argued Jacobs has tangible evidence disproving all three accounts, including one claim they say the NFL already reviewed without taking action.
  • The NFL said Saturday it is reviewing the newly surfaced allegations while already investigating Jacobs over a May 23 domestic incident that led to misdemeanor battery and property-damage convictions.
  • Six games on the commissioner's exempt list already disrupted Jacobs' season, and the renewed scrutiny comes as Green Bay has kept in contact with Indianapolis about a possible Jonathan Taylor trade.
