Josh Jacobs returned to the Green Bay Packers' lineup as the starting running back for Week 7 against the Detroit Lions on October 13, after the NFL removed him from the commissioner’s exempt list on. The decision was confirmed on October 17. Earlier, Wisconsin police said they were holding back video evidence of the domestic incident that led to Jacobs’ guilty plea to battery.

The league said the removal would let him practice and that any future discipline could be applied while the video review continued. Packers officials later announced that Jacobs would be allowed to use the team facility pending the ongoing investigation.
