Brown County prosecutors are not yet prepared to decide on charges against Packers running back Josh Jacobs, who’s been released from custody. At a news conference after team practice on Wednesday, head coach Matt LaFleur had little to say.
“I’m going to stick with the statement that we put out as an organization and just let the process play out,” LaFleur said.
The statement released Tuesday said the team is aware of the matter and would withhold further comment. Brown County jail records show Jacobs was booked Tuesday on potential charges including strangulation and suffocation and domestic battery.
The DA’s Office has “requested additional investigation” and said there was “reason to believe that additional evidence may exist that would impact whether additional charges are appropriate, and what charges would be issued,” according to a release from Brown County District Attorney David L. Lasee.
