On Tuesday, he displayed his agility during early drills while also working on his pass protection, per Wood. Jacobs arrived in Green Bay this offseason on a four-year, $48 million contract, effectively replacing Aaron Jones (Vikings) as the team's top running back. The Packers then re-signed AJ Dillon and added MarShawn Lloyd in the third round of this year's draft, but neither player should block Jacobs, who has averaged 20.6 touches per game in five seasons as a pro, from pacing this backfield. 5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE Bears, Packers' wildly different offensive team-building approaches shaped by their QBs The Bears and Packers have wildly different offensive team-building approaches, and it stems from how much they trust their respective QBs. 5 DAYS AGO 2024 NFL free agency tracker: Signings, updates, best players available Here's a look at the notable free agent signings around the NFL, along with the top players still available.

MAY 30 • DATA SKRIVE Lukas Van Ness - Dealing with thumb injury Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Van Ness is dealing with a broken thumb, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.Impact LaFleur didn't specify when Van Ness suffered the injury, but he downplayed the severity of the issue by saying that the edge rusher "broke his thumb just a little bit." The 2023 first-round pick sat out Green Bay's voluntary OTA session Wednesday, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, so it will be worth monitoring his involvement by the start of the team's mandatory minicamp June 11. Van Ness recorded 32 tackles and four sacks over 17 regular-season games during his rookie season. MAY 30 • ROTOWIRE Quay Walker - Could wear green dot in 2024 Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Walker "more than likely" will wear the green dot helmet in 2024 as the Packers' primary defensive communicator, Ryan Wood of US...Impact Walker logged over 100 tackles during both of his first two seasons in Green Bay, making him the team's most proven off-ball linebacker following the release of De'Vondre Campbell, who has since joined San Francisco. The Packers are shifting to a new 4-3 defensive scheme under first-year defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley, and the team added Edgerrin Cooper in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft while bringing back veteran Isaiah McDuffie. As such, Walker will still likely have to prove that he's capable of handling a bigger role as Hafley begins to implement his defense this offseason.
