Josh Jacobs Shatters Records, Joins Rarefied RB Class – What He Did Next Will Shock You!

Is Josh Jacobs quietly slipping into the pantheon of all-time greats? I mean, it’s not every day you see a running back start his career with seven straight seasons of six-plus rushing touchdowns—heck, only three others since 2000 have pulled off that feat. Watching Jacobs break through after a slow start, especially against a struggling Bengals defense, feels like witnessing a star rediscovering his shine under Lambeau Field’s bright lights. This isn’t just stats and numbers; it’s a statement. With Green Bay’s running game finally warming up and Jacobs proving he’s no flash in the pan, one has to wonder—are we looking at a future Hall of Famer in the making, or is this just the beginning of something even more remarkable?

The Green Bay Packers‘ running game might finally get going.

Facing two bottom-feeding defenses might be just what the doctor ordered for Josh Jacobs to shake off his slow start to the season.

And with his strong performance against the Cincinnati Bengals, he joined a very exclusive list.

As reported by Wendell Ferreira on X, the star running back became just the fourth running back since 2000 to log at least six rushing touchdowns in each of his first seven career seasons.

Josh Jacobs is the fourth running back since 2000 with at least six rushing touchdowns in each of his first seven career seasons, joining Ezekiel Elliott, Adrian Peterson, and LaDainian Tomlinson.

He’s now joined the likes of Ezekiel Elliott, Adrian Peterson, and LaDainian Tomlinson, and you know you’re in pretty good company when you’re mentioned in the same breath as two Hall of Famers and legendary players like the last two.

Jacobs logged 93 rushing yards on 18 carries, averaging 5.2 yards per attempt and logging two touchdowns.

He was also a big factor in the passing game, hauling in five receptions on as many targets for 57 yards, the second-most on the team behind only Matthew Golden.

Jacobs is now up to six rushing touchdowns and 359 yards for the season.

While his average of 3.7 yards per carry might not be as impressive and efficient as it usually is, that should only get better now that the Packers’ offensive line is getting healthy.

They ran for 153 yards as a team, and Jacobs is the type of every-down running back who gets better with more touches.

Matt LaFleur’s team still needs to clean some things up, but they will always stand a chance with Jacobs running this way.
