Josh Jacobs Just Dropped a Bombshell – Packers Fans Won’t Sleep Tonight!

GREEN BAY, WI – Brace yourselves, Packers Nation—Josh Jacobs just lit a fire under us all! Last night (February 21, 2025), our star running back posted a cryptic Instagram Story that’s got X and r/GreenBayPackers in a frenzy: “Lambeau is home, but I need teammates who can keep up.” After bulldozing his way to 1,200 rushing yards in the 2024-2025 season, this bombshell has fans losing sleep. What’s he hinting at? And can Green Bay deliver?

As a diehard who’s suffered through every snap of our 11-6 campaign, I can tell you Jacobs was a beast—our offensive lifeline. He powered through defenses like a freight train against the Titans (126 yards) and shredded the Bears (108 yards, 2 TDs). But that Wild Card loss to the Eagles (22-10)? Brutal. Jacobs managed just 63 yards, and I couldn’t help but notice how our offensive line—especially center Josh Myers—let him down. Myers’ run-blocking grade of 50.9 (PFF) is downright embarrassing for a team with Super Bowl dreams. I saw Jacobs get stuffed at the line too many times because the big guys up front couldn’t open a lane.

So when Jacobs says he needs “teammates who can keep up,” what’s he after? Over on X, @PackersNationWI dropped a juicy theory: he’s eyeing a true WR1 like Tee Higgins to stretch the field and give him more room to run. Imagine Jacobs busting loose while Higgins hauls in deep balls from Jordan Love—drool-worthy, right? But on r/GreenBayPackers, u/Cheesehead4Life doubled down: “Jacobs deserves a real OL—Myers has to go!” Meanwhile, u/PackAttack21 threw shade: “He’s got Love and a decent line—stop whining and run harder!”

Here’s where it gets wild: with $64 million in cap space, GM Brian Gutekunst could actually make this happen. Sign Higgins from the Bengals? Draft a stud center like Alabama’s Parker Brailsford? Or both? I’m leaning toward fixing the line first—Jacobs can’t shine if he’s hitting a wall every play. But some fans on X, like @TFG_Football, wonder if he’s just flexing for clout, à la Ronika Stone’s legendary Cowboys troll. Is this a legit plea or offseason drama bait? You tell me—Higgins, a new OL, or is Jacobs just stirring the pot?
