On Sunday, the league has placed two players on paid leave: Packers running back Josh Jacobs and Broncos linebacker Jonathon Cooper. Seahawks cornerback Terrion Arnold will join them soon.

We're told there will be no further players placed on the Commissioner Exempt list today.

This means that neither Rams receiver Puka Nacua nor Rams tackle Alaric Jackson will be placed on paid leave, at least for now.

Nacua has been sued for biting a woman on New Year's Eve. Reporting on the matter has included reference to a potential diversion program . That would trigger automatic review under the Personal Conduct Policy — and likely discipline.

Ditto for Jackson , who has previously served a two-game suspension under the Personal Conduct Policy. He was arrested for domestic battery, but he won't face felony charges. A diversion program is on the table in lieu of misdemeanor charges.
