REPORT: Josh Jacobs Aims to ‘Leave My Legacy’ with the Packers – What’s Driving This Bold Move?

Josh Jacobs

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs concluded another Pro Bowl Games experience on Sunday, his third selection for the all-star honor in the past five seasons.

The 2022 NFL rushing champion and first-team All-Pro, Jacobs has established his credentials as one of the top running backs of his era.

This season, the former Alabama ball-carrier pushed his career totals to 6,874 rushing yards and 233 receptions.

Nine other players have reached both those figures in their first six NFL seasons, and five are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

“Legacy, that’s the biggest thing,” Jacobs said about what he wants to do with the rest of his NFL career. “When you’ve accomplished a lot of accolades in this league, the only thing you really care about is winning and the legacy that you leave when it’s all said and done.

“Being on the Packers, I’m just trying to leave my legacy for this franchise, leave my legacy in this building and for the fans. But not only that, leave my impact in the community with the things that I do with the outreach programs and in the locker room with the guys that play with me. I would say that’s the biggest thing for me.”

Jacobs signed with the Packers in March as a free agent. He produced 1,329 yards and 15 touchdowns on 301 rushing attempts.

Jacobs had the third-most rushing touchdowns, fifth-most rushing yards and sixth-most carries in one season in franchise history.

“I pretty much did,” Jacobs said when asked if he expected such production when he signed with Green Bay. “There’s a big reason why I wanted to come here. Obviously, I wanted to win games, but also because I felt like I could see myself doing well over here.”
