EXPLAINED: Josh jacobs powers packers opening drive td in seattle - The Real Truth

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs handled the first eight touches of the game and scored a 1-yard touchdown on the 10th play of Green Bay’s opening drive on Sunday night in Seattle.

Jacobs caught a pair of passes for 17 yards, ran seven times for 27 yards and scored on 3rd-and-goal from the 1-yard line. The drive — 10 plays gaining 63 yards — took up almost six minutes off the first quarter clock.

Here’s Jacobs’ touchdown, his 13th of the 2024 season:

Jordan Love completed two passes — both to Jacobs — and scrambled once for four yards. The Packers converted 3rd-and-3 with a 5-yard run from Jacobs and 3rd-and-goal with the scoring play.

Only once on seven rushing attempts was Jacobs stopped for fewer than three yards.

The Packers lead 7-0 at Lumen Field. Green Bay hasn’t won in Seattle since 2008.
