What happened: Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has filed a civil lawsuit seeking a permanent injunction to restrict access to records from a May 23 altercation at his home, per Rob Demovsky and Adam Schefter. The suit names the Hobart Police Department in Wisconsin, per WBAY.

Why it matters: Jacobs remains on the commissioner exempt list following two misdemeanor charges logged in August stemming from the May arrest. He has missed five regular-season games in 2026 while the league conducts its investigation.

What to watch: Court rulings on the requested permanent injunction will determine whether records from the May 23 incident are released as the NFL investigation continues.
