The Green Bay Packers made a high-profile move for Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs in free agency as the franchise signed him to a four-year, $48 million contract.
With Jacobs, Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon, the Packers had a very potent backfield…until they didn’t. The Packers would then release Jones, who had slowly been working his way back to form in the second half of the season.
Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur has now revealed that the front office’s move to sign Jacobs and then to cut Jones was one that he wasn’t expecting.
