Records reveal 3 other women accused Josh Jacobs of abuse following his May arrest. The Green Bay Packers running back pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery charges Sept. 10 after a May 26 incident where a woman claimed he threw her to the ground. Police reports show additional allegations dating back to 2022, including physical violence, threats, and controlling behavior.

One woman reported Jacobs slapped her, threw her phone in a pool, and pinned her down, saying "I should kill you right now." She waited to report due to ongoing friendship and fear of disbelief. Another woman alleged sex in April 2021, claiming Jacobs broke her condom, removed her from his residence, and caused bruising. A third woman described a May 2022 incident where Jacobs grabbed her by hair, dragged her, and damaged her phone, resulting in chest scratches.

She initially didn't report due to immigration concerns. Jacobs has played two games since being placed on the NFL's commissioner exempt list in August after charges were filed.
