What happened: Ed Werder noted Saturday that the Green Bay Packers own the NFL's worst rushing offense and remain the only franchise yet to reach 100 rushing yards in a game this season. The ground slump comes as Green Bay activated running back Josh Jacobs on Saturday, with Jacobs expected to play Sunday, per Adam Schefter.

Why it matters: Green Bay has overcome its rushing inefficiency to post a 4-2 record and a three-game winning streak, holding the No. 6 seed after a 23-13 win on Oct. 18. Returning Jacobs to the backfield rotation gives the offense an immediate opportunity to balance its play-calling ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline.

By the numbers: The Packers sit at 4-2 in the 2026 regular season (W3 streak, No. 6 seed) with zero 100-yard team rushing games through six contests. In 2025 with Green Bay, Jacobs logged 234 carries for 929 yards and 13 touchdowns across 15 games (per ESPN, as of Sept. 29, 2026) and ranked No. 74 on the NFL Top 100 list in July 2026.

What to watch: Jacobs' snap count and workload will be tested immediately when the Packers take the field Sunday. Green Bay also faces roster evaluation decisions ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline.
