The Green Bay Packers’ running game was the defining identity of their offense in 2024—not because the passing game struggled, quite the opposite. The Packers ranked sixth in EPA per pass. However, Josh Jacobs was Green Bay’s top offensive player last year, and when he was a big part of the game plan, defenses had a hard time stopping them from moving the chains.
Last year, Jacobs had the most yards after contact by a Packers running back since Ryan Grant in 2008. He finished second in rushing touchdowns and ranked sixth in rushing yards and runs of 10+ yards.
