Works out with Colts
The Colts worked out Jacobs (undisclosed) on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Jacobs was previously let go by the Rams with an injury settlement in late August, but following his workout with the Colts, it appears he's moved past the undisclosed issue. The Arkansas product appeared in 15 regular-season games with the Lions in 2023, recording 55 total tackles and eight passes defended, including three interceptions.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
A couple of years ago, it would be stunning to think that the undrafted Jacobs would outperform 2020 No. 3 overall pick Jeff Okudah. Entering 2023, Okudah has been traded to Atlanta for peanuts and Jacobs is not only set for a starting role but a contract extension, too. While Detroit did give Cameron Sutton a three-year, $33 million deal to come in as the No. 1 cornerback, Jacobs should be busy as well after his return to an every-down role in 2022 directly coincided with the Lions' stark second-half defensive improvement. The wild card is Emmanuel Moseley, who is bouncing back from a torn ACL and could push Jacobs for reps when healthy.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets look from Denver
Jacobs worked out for the Broncos on Monday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old cornerback remains a free agent after playing 15 regular-season games for the Lions in 2023. Jacobs suffered a hamstring injury that left him unavailable for the playoffs, however, and after signing with the Rams in July he was waived with an injury settlement the following month. If Jacobs does link up with the Broncos, he would be little more than an insurance policy behind starting boundary corners Patrick Surtain and Riley Moss, although the latter did miss the team's last game before their Week 14 bye with a knee injury.
