Will Josh Jacobs bets be refunded after injury during Packers vs. Patriots NFL Week 9?

During the first quarter of Sunday’s game in New England, Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs was forced to leave the game with a hand injury. The team announced that he is questionable to return.

Before exiting, Jacobs had four carries for five yards and was not targeted in the passing game.

Will Josh Jacobs bets be refunded?

Thankfully for eligible Jacobs prop backers on DraftKings Sportsbook, because he left the game in the first half due to injury, DraftKings’ Early Exit Protected rules apply to qualifying wagers if he doesn’t return to this game.

Eligible single bets on Jacobs will be settled as void, with the original stake returned. For qualifying parlays and Same Game Parlays, the Jacobs selection will be voided, and the odds of the wager will be recalculated using the remaining legs.

Bets or selections that were already determined before Jacobs’ injury may still be settled normally rather than receiving Early Exit protection.

DraftKings Early Exit FAQ

What is DraftKings Early Exit?

DraftKings Early Exit Protected is a free feature that automatically protects eligible NFL player prop bets during the first half. If an eligible player leaves during the first half because of an injury or officially confirmed illness and does not return, the qualifying selection is settled as void.

Which NFL bets are eligible for Early Exit?

Early Exit applies to eligible full-game NFL player props placed before the game, along with select eligible live bets. Qualifying wagers can include single bets, parlays and Same Game Parlays. In parlays, an eligible Early Exit selection is voided and the wager is recalculated using the remaining legs.

Is there a way to get injury protection on bets for the whole game?

Yes. DraftKings Early Exit+ is an optional feature that extends Early Exit protection into the second half of an NFL game for a fee equal to 3% of the wager amount. The fee is separate from the wager and is not refunded. You can upgrade to full-game protection without leaving your bet slip.
