Summarised from 2 outlets · 3 reports · Updated 1 Nov, 22:32 · Archive

Three women have made allegations of assault against Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs to police, spanning incidents from 2021 and 2022.

Three women made allegations against Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs to Hobart-Lawrence Police, according to newly released documents. Jacobs was arrested in August following an incident at his home in May 2026 and pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor battery charge.

One woman told police in June 2026 of an alleged incident from January 2022 in which she said Jacobs slapped her during an argument and threw her phone into a pool. She accused him of also grabbing her hair, throwing her onto a bed, pinning her down, throwing her onto the floor, and spitting on her. She did not report it at the time because she remained friends with Jacobs and was unsure if she would be believed. A second woman alleged an altercation in April 2021 when, she said, Jacobs became upset, grabbed her arm, pushed her against a wall near a window, and threw her belongings out of the house. Police records indicate Jacobs told officers he had asked the woman to leave multiple times before picking her up by her waist and removing her from his home. The case was not investigated as domestic disturbance because the two were not dating.

Jacobs' attorneys denied all three allegations in a statement, saying he 'denies all three accounts and has a substantial body of tangible evidence to back up his assertions'. They stated that one woman's claim to the NFL resulted in no action being warranted, and that another woman made her allegation in 2021 only after Jacobs called Las Vegas police to report her for misconduct. Regarding the third woman, the attorneys said she had contacted Jacobs asking to visit, came to his home, and that another person was present during part of her stay.
