New Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs, who signed a four-year deal to join Matt LaFleur and Jordan Love in free agency, will wear the No. 8 uniform with his new team. Backup quarterback Sean Clifford, who wore the number as a rookie last year, switched to No. 6 to accommodate Jacobs’ arrival.
Jacobs previously wore No. 8 in high school, in college at Alabama and last year with the Las Vegas Raiders. Now he’ll rock the single digit in the green and gold in Green Bay.
Here’s a mockup of what Jacobs will look like in his No. 8 Packers uniform:
Jacobs, a first-round pick of the Raiders in 2019, was the NFL’s rushing champion in 2022. The two-time Pro Bowler has 5,545 career rushing yards and 46 career touchdowns over five NFL seasons. In Green Bay, he’ll be the replacement for Aaron Jones, the franchise’s third all-time leading rusher.
