Josh Jacobs' injury shouldn't require a lengthy absence, though IR might still be in play in the worst-case scenario. The report that Josh Jacobs' recovery would take two to three weeks indicates he's going to avoid landing on IR.

Josh Jacobs Return Timeline Faces Potential Three-Week Delay

A Week 13 return for Josh Jacobs would come after the two-to-three week timeline is up, so he might miss three weeks but only two games for Green Bay.
