        Josh Jacobs "A True Game-Time Decision" For Week 7

        The Packers consider RB Josh Jacobs (calf, illness) a "true game-time decision" for Sunday's meeting with the Cardinals, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It's presumably the calf that has Jacobs iffy for this one. That issue was added to the injury report on Friday, although Jacobs was a full participant in practice that day. We'll surely get more updates on Jacobs between now and the 1 pm ET kickoffs on Sunday. (We won't get Green Bay's inactives until a little before 3 pm ET.) Schefter also confirms that RB Emanuel Wilson would be the expected starter if Jacobs can't go. We'd also see RB Chris Brooks mix in, particularly on passing downs. And the Packers elevated RB Pierre Strong from the practice squad on Saturday. Wilson would likely settle in as a mid to high-end RB3 in the Week 7 rankings if Jacobs misses.
