<p>Josh Jacobs, the Green Bay Packers star running back arrested for a slew of charges that stemmed from an alleged domestic violence incident, has been released from jail.</p>
<p>Jacobs was released from the Brown County jail on Wednesday at 12:20 p.m., the Green Bay Press-Gazette <a href="https://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/story/news/crime/2026/05/27/district-attorney-declines-josh-jacobs-charges-investigation-continues/90278961007/">reported</a>.</p>
<p>His release comes as the district attorney decides on whether to pursue charges for the NFL star, per the outlet.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our office has requested additional investigation, as there is reason to believe that additional evidence may exist that would impact whether criminal charges are appropriate, and what charges would be issued,&#8221; District Attorney David Lasee said in a statement to <a href="https://fox11online.com/news/crime/green-bay-head-coach-matt-lafleur-press-conference-josh-jacobs-arrest-domestic-charges">Fox 11</a>. &#8220;Mr. Jacobs will be released from custody at this time, and a final charging decision will be made by our office at a later date.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jacobs, who was a team captain last year, was arrested Tuesday after police were dispatched to an alleged domestic dispute Saturday. Now the 28-year-old faces the following five charges from the Hobart-Lawrence Police Department: battery-domestic abuse, criminal damage to property- domestic abuse, disorderly conduct- domestic abuse, strangulation and suffocation, and intimidation of a victim.</p>
<p>Packers head coach Matt LaFleur remained tight-lipped on his Jacobs shocking arrest after the team’s open practice, saying, &#8220;I’m gonna stick with the statement that we put out as an organization and just let the process play out,&#8221; according to Fox 11 News.</p>
<p>The Packers released the following statement after the arrest: &#8220;We are aware of the matter involving Josh Jacobs. As it is an ongoing legal situation, we will withhold further comment,” per Fox 11.</p>
<p>According to his legal team, the former Alabama Crimson Tide star denies the heinous allegations.</p>
<p>&#8220;Josh vehemently denies the allegations, and this matter is in the early stages of investigation with important evidence that has not yet been made public. We ask for fairness and restraint while the judicial process takes its course,&#8221; his attorney said Tuesday in a statement.</p>
<p>The Tulsa native joined the Packers in 2024 after a five-year stint with the Raiders, who drafted Jacobs out of Alabama with the 24th overall pick in the draft.</p>
<p>He’s about to enter year three of his four-year $48 million contract with Green Bay.</p>
<p>Jacobs had a previous run-in with the law back in 2021 when he was charged with a DUI following a single-vehicle car crash, but the charge was ultimately dropped.</p>
<p>As a fan favorite, Jacobs has been open about growing up with periods of homelessness in Tulsa, where he and his family lived in a car. During his first NFL contract, Jacobs was able to purchase a house for his father, Marty.</p>
<p>His philanthropic efforts are why the arrest has shocked NFL fans. There is no new date set for Jacobs to appear in court again at this time.</p>
