The investigation is ongoing and ongoing, the statement said.
Jacobs' attorneys, David Z. Chesnoff and Clarence Duchac, said the 28-year-old suspect denies all charges.
“Josh denies these allegations, and this matter will still be investigated as there is important evidence that has not come to light,” read the statement of the lawyers.
“We ask for impartiality and restraint while the judicial process continues.”
The NFL has been notified of the situation and has been in contact with the Packers. Green Bay also told The Athletic that it would not comment due to the ongoing investigation into the matter.
