Josh Jacobs, the running back for the Green Bay Packers, returned to practice on Thursday after dealing with an ankle injury sustained during the previous game against Jacksonville. Despite appearing to favor his lower body, Jacobs is optimistic about playing against the Lions this Sunday. Earlier in the season, Jacobs declined an offer from the Kansas City Chiefs, citing a desire to help elevate a team rather than join a dominant one.

• Jacobs is recovering from an ankle injury but is expected to play against the Lions.
