ANALYSISJacobs started Green Bay's preseason opener against the Jets, playing just one offensive snap, but the Packers will opt against risking certain key starters Saturday versus Indianapolis. In addition to injured players such as
Jordan Love (thumb),
Jayden Reed (knee),
Dontayvion Wicks (calf) and
Romeo Doubs (back), several key starters alongside Jacobs will be healthy scratches, including TE
Tucker Kraft.

Matthew Golden, and backup running backs
Emanuel Wilson and
MarShawn Lloyd will be among key offensive playmakers available for the Packers.
