After completing the offseason program in Green Bay, Packers running back Josh Jacobs believes he is playing in an offense with unlimited potential.
“Honestly, I think the sky is the limit on this offense,” Jacobs said on NFL Network. “Obviously, having a special guy in Jordan Love, you know, and having a good offensive line and some good receivers out there makes it a lot easier for me, but just to be able to see the game plan and the things they want to see. I do this year, the things they’re allowing me to do, I just think it’s going to be a special year.”
Jacobs led the NFL in rushing yards in 2022, but he believes his wide receiver talent was not fully utilized during his five years with the Raiders, and now that he is with the Packers, he thinks he will show all he can do in the passing game.
“Just to be able to go out and really show that I can catch the ball more,” Jacobs said. “Not only that, but trusting myself enough to be able to take protections. It’s so special when you have a guy like Jordan Love back there, and you can’t just load the box every play and make defenses decide what they want to stop. I think that will be the biggest help for me this year.”
And the Packers expect Jacobs to be a big help to the offense, taking a big step forward with Love.
