Green Bay running back Josh Jacobs won't require surgery for the knee injury that caused him to leave the Packers' victory over the New York Giants on Sunday, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press.

The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Monday because the Packers haven't announced the severity of the injury. NFL Network first reported that Jacobs' knee had no structural damage and wouldn't require surgery.

Jacobs appeared to hurt his left knee when he was knocked out of bounds by Jevon Holland on a first-quarter carry. Jacobs initially stayed in the game before going to the sideline in obvious pain and eventually heading into the locker room.

He had seven carries for 40 yards before exiting a game the Packers eventually won 27-20 .
