Packers running back Josh Jacobs charged with misdemeanors in domestic violence case

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs was charged with misdemeanor battery and misdemeanor criminal damage to property following a May 23 altercation with his girlfriend at his Wisconsin home. The NFL placed Jacobs on the commissioner's exempt list, preventing him from playing or practicing while he continues to be paid. The Packers organization expressed hope Jacobs could return later in the season while the legal process unfolds.
