Packers agree to contract with free agent RB Josh Jacobs, per report

The first (small) domino fell for the Green Bay Packers in free agency on Monday morning, when they re-signed tight end Tyler Davis to a one-year deal. Now, a much bigger shoe has dropped, with the team landing their first big-name free agent from an outside team in several years.

That name is running back Josh Jacobs, a five-year veteran who has spent his entire career to this point with the Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero first reported that the two sides have come to a deal to bring the 2019 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year to Green Bay.
