Jacobs found renewed life in Green Bay, joining others such as \ufeff\ufeff\ufeffSaquon Barkley<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff and \ufeff\ufeff\ufeffDerrick Henry<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff in the free-agent RB renaissance. He not only set a new personal best in rushing touchdowns but also ended an insane streak of 211 catches<\/a> to begin his career without a TD reception. While \ufeff\ufeff\ufeffJordan Love<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff dealt with various injuries and Packers pass catchers struggled with consistency, Jacobs was simply a tank as he kept Green Bay on the playoff path. He logged at least 26 touches in four different contests, topping out at 32 and hardly looking the worse for wear.<\/p>\n
