Is Josh Jacobs playing today vs. Lions? Packers confirm his status for Thanksgiving

After suffering a knee injury that knocked him out of the Green Bay Packers' Week 11 win over the New York Giants, an injury that thankfully didn't turn out to be season-ending like some initially believed it would be, Josh Jacobs was adamant that he wouldn't miss more than one game.

And as it turns out, his prediction was spot-on, as the three-time Pro Bowler was officially taken off the injury report on Wednesday and will indeed take the field for the Packers' high-profile Thanksgiving Day showdown in the Motor City with the rival Detroit Lions.
