Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Jacobs has been battling knee issues all season long, and after 15 games his knee has apparently had enough. Coughlin did not specifically say what the damage was or whether it happened during his six-carry, one-yard performance against the Panthers on Sunday. He also indicated the problem wasn’t discovered until Jacobs was examined yesterday. ... Gartrell Johnson will move up in the rotation with D.J. Ware apparently falling from favor with coaches.
