NFL Reviews 3 New Abuse Allegations Against Josh Jacobs After May Arrest

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Oct 31

Three additional women accused Packers running back Josh Jacobs of abuse in police records, prompting the NFL to say it will fold the claims into its still-open investigation.
The records, first obtained by NBC 26, describe alleged incidents from 2021 and 2022 and add detail to the May 23 case, including the original accuser's claim that Jacobs pinned her down and briefly impeded her breathing.
Jacobs' lawyers called the allegations old, uncorroborated and previously unreported, saying prosecutors had already reviewed them before charging him with only two misdemeanors and reaching a plea deal.
Jacobs pleaded no contest last month to misdemeanor battery and criminal damage to property, was removed from the commissioner's exempt list last week, and has played two games for the 5-3 Packers since returning.
