Logs 13 touches in loss
Jacobs rushed nine times for 51 yards and brought in four of six targets for 27 yards in the Packers' 31-29 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: Jacobs averaged an efficient 5.7 yards per carry, and he complemented the rushing performance with a season high in receptions and receiving yards. His rushing opportunities were curtailed overall due to a game script that saw the Packers fall behind by a large margin over the first two quarters-plus, but he still managed to cobble together a reasonably productive performance relative to opportunity. Jacobs next takes aim at the Rams' inconsistent defense in a Week 5 road matchup.

Minimal production on 14 carries
Jacobs rushed the ball 14 times for 43 yards in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Titans. He added one reception on one target for five yards.
Analysis: Jacobs saw his fewest carries of the season, seemingly in part due to game plan but also due to ineffectiveness, as he had only 11 yards on seven carries at halftime. Jacobs salvaged his day to some degree with a 10-yard gain late in the fourth quarter, and he also had a 23-yard rush wiped away by a penalty on the next play, but it was still a subpar performance. He should see plenty of work in Week 4 against Minnesota, and the return of Jordan Love (knee) could help both his volume and…read more

Clear for Week 3
Jacobs (back) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Tennessee, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: For s second week in a row, Jacobs has operated with a cap on his practice reps due to a back injury, but it won't impede him from serving as the Packers' No. 1 running back this weekend. The biggest question mark in Green Bay's offense remains the status of Jordan Love, who is listed as questionable and may be a game-time call, per Bill Huber of SI.com. No matter who among Love or Malik Willis is under center, Jacobs should handle a healthy dose of carries, as he has 48 through two contests…read more

Another limited showing
Jacobs (back) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
Analysis: Jacobs now has been listed as limited on five consecutive injury reports due to a lingering back issue, but the cap on his reps is merely precautionary, as evidenced by the running back racking up 32 carries for 151 yards during this past Sunday's win against the Colts. If last week is any indication, he'll be cleared once the Packers post their final report of Week 3 prep Friday.

Still dealing with back issue
Jacobs was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a back injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jacobs continues to tend to the same health concern that capped his on-field reps all of last week, but the injury didn't stop him from pacing a run-heavy game plan in a win over the Colts this past Sunday, when he tallied 32 carries for 151 yards. With MarShawn Lloyd (ankle) joining AJ Dillon (neck) on injured reserve this week, Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks are the healthy running backs on Green Bay's active roster. In the end, though, Jacobs will remain the team's bell-cow back as long as…read more

Limited Wednesday
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Jacobs was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Analysis: It's unclear if Jacobs is dealing with the back injury that limited in practice all of last week, but it's not surprising that he's dealing with some wear and tear in the wake of handling 32 carries for 151 yards in the past Sunday's win against the Colts. Jacobs' health concern will be revealed once the Packers post their first Week 3 injury report later Wednesday.

Spearheads offense in Week 2 win
Jacobs rushed 32 times for 151 yards in the Packers' 16-10 win over the Colts on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: The offseason acquisition took on a signature workhorse role in the victory, shouldering a massive amount of volume in the absence of Jordan Love (knee). Jacobs' ability to consistently rip off productive gains -- his longest run was a relatively modest 34 yards -- helped protect Malik Willis in his first Packers start, and Green Bay's defense did its part to keep the game script favorable for the ground attack with three interceptions and a sack of Anthony Richardson. Jacobs' lack of a…read more

Cleared for Week 2
Jacobs (back) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Indianapolis.
Analysis: Jacobs was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, after playing 72 percent of snaps and taking 18 touches for 104 yards from scrimmage in the Week 1 loss to Philadelphia. He could be even more emphasized in Green Bay's offense if QB Jordan Love (questionable, MCL sprain) ends up inactive this Sunday, but that might also lead to fewer scoring opportunities for the team and less defensive focus on stopping passes.

Another limited practice
Jacobs (back) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
Analysis: Jacobs has kicked off Week 2 prep with consecutive capped sessions due to a back issue, but there's been no indication that his status for Sunday's game against the Colts is in question. Still, his activity level will continue to be monitored, and his listing on Friday's practice report will be key for his odds to suit up this weekend. Assuming he's available, Jacobs could see heavy usage due to the fact that Jordan Love may not be able to play due to the MCL sprain that he suffered in the…read more

Tending to back issue
Jacobs was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a back injury.
Analysis: Head coach Matt LaFleur told Matt Schneidman of The Athletic earlier Wednesday that Jacobs would have a cap on his reps to begin Week 2 prep, and the reason for the running back's limitations has now become known. Both Jacobs and MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) operated in such a manner Wednesday, which leaves Emanuel Wilson as the only healthy running back on the Packers' active roster at the moment. Jacobs will have two more chances to get back to full participation this week before the team…read more

Limited in practice
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Jacobs will be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: LaFleur provided the update before practice but didn't comment on the nature of Jacobs' injury or ailment. The Packers' new running back played 72 percent of snaps in Friday's 34-29 loss to Philadelphia, handling 16 of the team's 20 running-back carries and three of the six running-back targets en route to 104 total yards. Any limitations for Week 2 against Indianapolis would open up more playing time for Emanuel Wilson and/or MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring), and the Packers are generally expected…read more

Logs 104 total yards in debut
Jacobs rushed 16 times for 84 yards and caught two of three targets for 20 yards in a 34-29 loss to the Eagles on Friday.
Analysis: Jacobs started slowly, gaining just four yards on six carries in the first half. However, the Alabama product looked much more explosive after halftime, ripping off three runs of over 10 yards, including a 32-yarder early in the fourth period that helped set up a Green Bay field goal. It was an altogether promising first game as a Packer for Jacobs, who surpassed 1,000 rushing yards in three of his five campaigns with the Raiders.

Sits out final exhibition
Jacobs (coach's decision) was held out of Saturday's preseason finale against the Ravens.
Analysis: Jacobs made a brief appearance in Green Bay's first exhibition contest, but the team opted to keep its new offensive weapon fresh ahead of Week 1. The 26-year-old barely reached 1,000 total yards from scrimmage in his final season with the Raiders, but his production was likely diminished due to poor offensive game planning combined with the lack of a legitimate passing offense to keep opposing defenses honest. That shouldn't be the case in Green Bay, as the Jordan Love era appears to be…read more

Sees brief action Saturday
Jacobs gained seven yards on his only carry and caught his only target for a two-yard loss in Saturday's 23-10 preseason win over the Browns.
Analysis: The running back dealt with a minor groin injury earlier in the week, but Jacobs was healthy for the Packers' preseason opener and played one series before calling it a day. The former Raider has topped 1,100 scrimmage yards in each of his first five seasons in the NFL, but Green Bay's coaching staff has suggested Jacobs will be used a little more frequently as a receiver during his first season with his new club. Jacobs could see a bigger workload in next Sunday's preseason clash with the…read more

No limitations in practice
Jacobs is participating in 11-on-11s at Tuesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jacobs has quickly returned to full participation after a groin injury cost him a few practices last week and then limited his participation to individual drills for a few days thereafter. He's locked in atop the depth chart, ahead of veteran AJ Dillon and rookie third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd. Dillon took 21 of the 26 first-team snaps at Saturday's Family Night practice, with Lloyd handling the other five, per Justin Mosqueda of Acme Packing Co.

Participating in practice
Jacobs (groin) is participating in Saturday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jacobs ended up missing just two practices with a groin injury that the running back deemed was "just a tweak." Expect the veteran to continue pushing for a significant role in an offense that has featured the running back position often during Matt LaFleur's tenure as head coach.

Not worried about groin
Jacobs (groin) said Friday that he's healthy enough to play in a game and is dealing with a "tweak" more so than an actual injury, Zach Kruse of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Jacobs isn't worried about the groin injury, and it sounds like he won't miss too many practices. He was held out Thursday for the first time during training camp, which freed up more reps for backups AJ Dillon and MarShawn Lloyd.

Jacobs (hamstring) took part in Tuesday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Jacobs missed the first week of Packers OTAs due to a hamstring injury, but he was back on a limited basis by the second week before logging time with the first-team offense during the first session of mandatory minicamp this week. On Tuesday, he displayed his agility during early drills while also working on his pass protection, per Wood. Jacobs arrived in Green Bay this offseason on a four-year, $48 million contract, effectively replacing Aaron Jones as the team's top running back. The…read more

Returns to limited practice
Jacobs (hamstring) returned to practice on a limited basis Wednesday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Jacobs took part in individual drills but then mostly sat out the team period. He did, however, take at least one carry in full-team drills and appears to have made it through the day without any setbacks. The hamstring injury shouldn't have much affect on Jacobs as he prepares to lead a Green Bay backfield that also has AJ Dillon and rookie third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd on hand.

Dealing with hamstring injury
Coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday that Jacobs (hamstring) isn't practicing but should return to the field before too long, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jacobs was limited during OTAs on Tuesday, but it doesn't sound like the Packers are too concerned about his health. In the meantime, rookie third-round pick MarShawn Lloyd and returning veteran AJ Dillon will get extra backfield reps until Jacobs is ready to go. Jacobs at least worked on the side Tuesday, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, so he's already getting acclimated to his new offense.

Joined by third-round pick in backfield
The Packers drafted MarShawn Lloyd in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft to join Jacobs and AJ Dillon in their remade backfield, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic report.
Analysis: The decision to release Aaron Jones and sign Jacobs as a replacement likely had a lot to do with the latter being younger, larger and more capable of handling big workloads. It's nonetheless a bit difficult to project Jacobs' touch/snap counts for the upcoming season, as coach Matt LaFleur has almost always used a two-back approach when he's had his top two RBs healthy. On the other hand, there were many instances when LaFleur leaned heavily on Jones or Dillon, or Jamaal Williams before that,…read more

To be top dog in Green Bay
Jacobs is slated to sign with the Packers and become the team's clear top running back, with Aaron Jones being released and AJ Dillon poised for free agency, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Jacobs initially looked set to join Jones atop Green Bay's RB depth chart after agreeing to terms with the team, but he instead now has a clear path to a true workhorse role. It's still possible that Jones, or even Dillon, could end up re-signing with the Packers after testing the free-agent market, but it remains to be seen how much Green Bay will be willing to invest in the backfield after already making a one big splash in the form of Jacobs. Though he missed four games last season and was…read more

Analysis: Green Bay already has a No. 1 running back in place in Aaron Jones, but AJ Dillon just completed his rookie contract and is slated to move on now that the team is poised to ink Jacobs to a deal. Jacobs missed four games due to injury this past season but still managed to post 1,101 yards from scrimmage and six TDs on the ground for the Raiders, and he's just two years removed from pacing the NFL with 1,653 rushing yards. He'll join forces with Jones to form a formidable tandem out of the…read more

Doesn't receive franchise tag
Jacobs was not among the players that received the franchise tag ahead of Tuesday's deadline to do so, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: The same applies to Saquon Barkley of the Giants, which sets the stage for the pair of high-profile running backs to be able to explore their options in free agency next week. Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, tagging Jacobs would have cost the Raiders $14.1 million, so it's not surprising that the franchise didn't go in that direction. With the likes of Derrick Henry, Austin Ekeler, Tony Pollard and D'Andre Swift also eligible to become free agents in the coming days, it remains to be seen what sort…read more

Could stay with Vegas
GM Tom Telesco said Tuesday that the Raiders will make an effort to re-sign Jacobs (quadriceps) even though the running back isn't expected to get the franchise tag, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. "We're going to explore pretty hard and see if we can bring [Jacobs] back," said Telesco.
Analysis: Telesco all but confirmed a recent Adam Schefter report suggesting Jacobs wouldn't get tagged. That's no surprise given the $14.15 million salary the tag would carry, combined with Jacobs' disappointing 2023 campaign, but it doesn't mean the Raiders aren't interested in bring him back on a cheaper deal. What's less clear is if the team will make a serious effort to re-sign him before free agency or simply let him test the market.

Not getting tag
Jacobs (quadriceps) isn't likely to receive a franchise tag from the Raiders and figures to become a free agent in March, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: It would cost the Raiders about $14.15 million to tag Jacobs for a second straight offseason, and this time he's coming off a disappointing, injury-shorted year rather than a career-best breakout campaign. After taking 340 carries for a league-high 1,653 yards (4.9 YPC) in 2022, the 223-pound RB dropped to 233 carries for 805 yards (3.5 YPC) in 2023 before missing the final four games with a quad injury.

Jacobs (quad) has been ruled out for Sunday's season finale against the Broncos.
Analysis: With Jacobs, who last saw game action Week 14, ruled out for the contest, Zamir White once again is slated to lead the Raiders backfield Sunday. Jacobs thus finishes the 2023 campaign with 233 carries for 805 yards and six TDs to go along with 37 catches (on 54 targets) for 296 yards in 13 games.

Official confirmation of his Week 15 status will arrive once inactives are posted ahead of Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, but assuming Jacobs is deemed unavailable, Zamir White would be in line to start in his place, with Ameer Abdullah also in the mix.

Status in doubt for Thursday's game
Jacobs (quadricep) remains listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Chargers, but his status for the contest is considered "very much in doubt," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jacobs is taking a designation into the contest after he was listed as a non-participant on all three of the Raiders' Week 15 practice reports, though the team merely held a walk-through sessions due to the quick turnaround from Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Vikings. Late in that game, Jacobs appeared to sustain the quad injury, and he ultimately didn't check back into the contest after the Raiders initially deemed him questionable to return. Rapoport suggests that Jacobs won't be cleared to suit up…read more

Questionable for Thursday
Jacobs (quad) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: The Raiders conducted walk-throughs Monday through Wednesday, with Jacobs estimated as a non-participant for each. While the running back's lack of on-field reps this week isn't a great sign of his chances of playing against the Chargers, interim head coach Antonio Pierce noted earlier Wednesday that "if Josh Jacobs is ready to go, this is the Josh Jacobs Show," according to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com. Ideally, added context with regard to Jacobs' status will arrive prior to Thursday's 8:15…read more

Listed as non-participant Tuesday
Jacobs (quadricep) was listed as a non-participant in Tuesday's walk-through session.
Analysis: The Raiders conducted walk-through sessions Monday and Tuesday to begin Week 15 prep, but Jacobs would have had his reps managed had the team held traditional practices. Jacobs exited this past Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Vikings in the fourth quarter with what was at the time deemed a knee injury and finished the day with 13 carries for 34 yards and two receptions for 16 yards.

Listed as non-participant Monday
Jacobs was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate due to a quad issue.
Analysis: When Jacobs exited Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Vikings, his departure was attributed to a knee injury. In any case, the running back's listed quad concern makes his status worth tracking closely as Thursday night's game against the Chargers approaches. If Jacobs is unavailable for the contest or limited at all, Zamir White and Ameer Abdullah would be next in line for added backfield touches for the Raiders in Week 15.

Hurts knee in Week 14
Jacobs sustained a knee injury during Sunday's game versus the Vikings.
Analysis: Jacobs was spotted being evaluated by Raiders trainers in the fourth quarter and then attempted to walk it off while limping and grabbing at his leg before the Raiders made the announcement that he was questionable to return. If he's unable to do so, he'll finish Week 14 with 13 carries for 34 yards and two catches (on two targets) for 16 yards. Ameer Abdullah, Zamir White and Brandon Bolden currently are the healthy running backs on Las Vegas' active roster.

Big production in losing effort
Jacobs took 20 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown while catching four of six targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Jacobs put his team up 14-0 over the visiting Chiefs when he ripped off a 63-yard run in the opening moments of the second quarter for his longest touchdown this season. The Raiders' offense struggled to do much the rest of the way en route to its seventh loss, but the team's star back still finished with a strong fantasy line for managers Sunday.

Heavy workload in Week 11 loss
Jacobs rushed 14 times for 39 yards and secured his only target for 12 yards in the Raiders' 20-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: Jacobs was the only Raiders back to log a carry, but unlike the first two contests of head coach Antonio Pierce's interim tenure when the team enjoyed a game script favorable to the run game, the situation predictably shifted some toward the air attack against Miami. Jacobs also found running room at a premium, and the running game could again play second fiddle in a Week 12 home matchup versus the Chiefs.

Breaks century mark on 27 totes
Jacobs finished with 27 carries for 116 yards while corralling both of his targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets. He did commit two fumbles but lost possession of only one.
Analysis: Jacobs literally carried the offense to victory in Sunday's low-scoring affair, finishing with over 25 carries for the second week in a row. Interim head coach Antonio Pierce's committment to running has led to excellence in the form of consecutive wins for the now 5-5 Raiders.

Star of blowout victory
Jacobs took 26 carries for 98 yards and two touchdowns and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Jacobs stepped up with his best rushing line of the season in Las Vegas' first game under interim head coach Antonio Pierce on Sunday. The Raiders' new coaching staff committed to the run game en route to a lopsided win, resulting in the most carries for Jacobs through nine games this season. The Alabama product finished the contest without a target for the first time this year, but that likely had much to do with the one-sided nature of Sunday's result.

Plays well despite QB's struggles
Jacobs rushed 15 times for 61 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions. He also caught two of four targets for 27 yards.
Analysis: After the Lions scored the game's first nine points, Jacobs took over on the Raiders' second-quarter touchdown drive, rushing six times for 38 yards on the possession, including a three-yard touchdown run to get Vegas on the board. Jacobs averaged 4.9 YPC last season, but his 4.1 YPC on Monday was actually his best single-game mark of 2023, as he came in averaging an ugly 2.9 YPC through seven games.

Held in check Sunday
Jacobs carried the ball 11 times for 35 yards and caught one of four targets for six yards in Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: With Brian Hoyer getting the start at quarterback in place of Jimmy Garoppolo (back), Chicago's defense showed no fear of the Las Vegas passing game and made sure Jacobs wasn't going to beat them instead. Last season's rushing champ has yet to top 77 yards on the ground in a game this season, and that's unlikely to change in Week 8 against a Lions defense that's been among the stingiest in the league against the run in 2023.

Lots of work in win
Jacobs rushed 25 times for 77 yards and caught two of five targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over New England.
Analysis: Jacobs finished with 20-plus carries for the second consecutive week but was unable to replicate last week's touchdown. Las Vegas' workhorse still hasn't broken the four yards-per-carry mark in any game this season, softening his fantasy impact through six weeks. Jacobs will continue to receive all the touches he can handle despite getting off to a slow start, especially if starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (back) is unable to suit up for next Sunday's road game against Chicago.

Grinds for 89 yards plus TD
Jacobs rushed 20 times for 69 yards and a touchdown while catching all five of his targets for 20 yards in Monday's 17-13 win over Green Bay.
Analysis: Jacobs carried Las Vegas' offense with teammate Davante Adams (shoulder) playing at less than 100 percent Monday. The bruising back reached 25 combined touches for the second week in a row, resulting in consecutive games with trips to the end zone.

Big day as pass catcher
Jacobs rushed the ball 17 times for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Chargers. He added eight receptions on 11 targets for 81 yards.
Analysis: Jacobs was the focal point of the offense to begin the game as the Raiders tried to ease rookie Aidan O'Connell into his first NFL start. However, he was unable to find much room on the ground -- he entered halftime with eight carries for 25 yards -- and game script forced Las Vegas to the air. Given that combination, the majority of Jacobs' production came as a receiver, highlighted by three gains of more than 10 yards.

The 25-year-old still maintained his every-down role, commanding 100 percent of Las Vegas' running back carries Sunday.

Jacobs rushed the ball nine times for -2 yards in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Bills. He added five receptions on six targets for 51 yards.
Analysis: Jacobs was scripted out of the game early on from a rushing perspective, though he wasn't at all effective with the ball in his hands, as six of his nine rushes went for zero or negative yards. He found more success as a pass catcher, an area of the game he has proven capable of consistently contributing to across the last two seasons.

Jacobs carried the ball 19 times for 48 yards and no touchdowns while catching two of his three targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Jacobs ran into the brick wall that was Denver's defensive front Sunday. On a positive note, the star back dominated the rushing touches, with only one other back (Zamir White) receiving a carry. Despite the poor production to kick off the season, fantasy managers can feel good about Jacobs' usage heading into next week's matchup against the Bills.

Aiming for full Week 1 workload
Jacobs believes he's ready to take on a full workload Week 1 against the Broncos on Sunday but acknowledged that whether he gets the chance to do so will be up to the coaching staff, Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Jacobs held out for most of the offseason in hopes of a long-term deal before ultimately rejoining the Raiders in late August on a one-year pact. The NFL's 2022 rushing leader believes missing training camp and preseason has left him fresh to hit the ground running, but the Raiders may not think he's fully up to speed yet and thus could give Zamir White, Ameer Abdullah or Brandon Bolden more opportunities at Jacobs' expense in the season opener.

He says he's happy with the arrangement and doesn't harbor any hard feelings toward GM Dave Ziegler or the Raiders organization.

Analysis: Per Pelissero, the base value of Jacobs' new deal is $11.8 million, up from from the $10.091 million franchise tag the running back hadn't yet signed. Given the timing of the agreement, Jacobs should have ample time to prepare for the Raiders' season opener against the Broncos, a game in which the 2019 first-rounder is in line to reprise his role as the team's lead back, with Zamir White, Ameer Abdullah and Brandon Bolden in reserve.

Jacobs is expected to report to the Raiders before their season opener in three weeks, multiple league sources told Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Raiders coach Josh McDaniels when asked Sunday did not have an update on the situation.
Analysis: Jacobs did not report to training camp, and there have been almost no reports on his status or any contract talks. Because he hasn't yet signed his franchise tag, the team hasn't been able to fine him for practice absences.

After battling a number of minor injuries through his first three NFL seasons, the 2019 first-round pick won the league's rushing crown in 2022, totaling career highs in rushing attempts (340), rushing yards (1,653) and receiving yards (400).

The Raiders assigned their franchise tag to Jacobs on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The transaction was expected all along, as the tag keeps Jacobs from hitting the open market next week and allows the two sides to keep talking for the next four months in hopes of coming to terms on a multi-year deal. Jacobs is coming off a career year in which he rushed 340 times for a league-high 1,653 yards and 12 touchdowns. He also added 400 receiving yards on 53 catches. Jacobs should again be a fantasy difference-maker in 2023 as the centerpiece of the Las Vegas offense.

The Raiders can make him try and prove it again on a one-year, fully-guaranteed tag if they don't feel comfortable making Jacobs one of the highest-paid running backs in the league.

Analysis: Jacobs was a workhorse in his fourth NFL season, producing the league-high rushing total on 340 carries and scoring 12 touchdowns.

Jacobs rushed the ball 17 times for 45 yards in Saturday's 31-13 loss to the Chiefs. He added two receptions for five yards.
Analysis: Jacobs accounted for 17 of 18 carries by Las Vegas running backs, but he struggled to find room to run. His longest gain of the day went for 12 yards, and he managed only 2.6 yards per carry. Jacobs ends the season with 1,653 rushing yards, which will likely be good enough to lead the league. He also chipped in 53 receptions for 400 yards while finding the end zone a total of 12 times. Jacobs is set to become a free agent and will be one of the top available running backs.

Jacobs' status thus is worth monitoring closely as Saturday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff approaches, but if he's out or limited this weekend, some combo of Brandon Bolden, Ameer Abdullah and Zamir White would be in line to log added Week 18 backfield snaps for Las Vegas.

Analysis: Jacobs was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, so the running back will presumably need to practice fully Thursday in order to avoid carrying an injury designation into Saturday's game against the Chiefs.

Punches in 12th rushing TD
Jacobs carried the ball 17 times for 69 yards and a touchdown and caught four of five targets for 26 receiving yards in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to San Francisco.
Analysis: Jacobs bounced back from his worst rushing performance of the season in Week 16 (2.9 YPC) with a solid effort and his 12th rushing touchdown. The bruising back had to leave the game in the first half with a hip injury, but he was able to return and finish the game without any limitations. Assuming good health, Jacobs will finish his impressive 2022 campaign against the Chiefs, whom he torched for 154 rushing yards and a score back in Week 5.

Active as expected Sunday
Jacobs (hand/quadriceps) is active for Sunday's Week 15 clash against the Patriots.
Analysis: As has been the case on numerous occasions during the second half of the season, Jacobs will blow through his questionable designation to suit up and presumably handle his typically robust, diverse role versus New England. Jacobs has logged at least 21 carries in five straight games and multiple receptions in 11 consecutive contests, but he could be in for especially tough sledding on the ground against a Patriots defense that's allowed the sixth-fewest rushing yards per road game (92.3).

Plans to play Sunday
Jacobs (hand/quadriceps), who is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots, plans to play in the contest, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The running back, who was limited in practice this past week, injured his right pinkie finger during the Raiders' Week 14 loss to the Rams. Assuming he's active ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, Jacobs said that his plan to manage the pinkie issue is to "probably cast it a little bit, wrap it up and then see how it goes from there." To date, Jacobs has maintained a high-volume role while leading the Raiders' backfield, and he'll likely take on as much work as he can handle Sunday, with…read more

Listed as questionable for Sunday
Jacobs (quad/hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
Analysis: Jacobs has yet to miss a game this season, but his status will nonetheless be worth confirming ahead of Sunday's 4:05 ET kickoff. "He's had a good week. We've been smart about him in general and obviously he's played a lot of snaps for us and done a lot of things in terms of being physical," coach Josh McDaniels noted of the Raiders' top running back Friday. "So, we'll make a good choice on that as well and if there's something that we need to limit, then we'll try to. But right now, he looks…read more

Remains limited Thursday
Jacobs (quadriceps/hand) remained limited at practice Thursday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With back-to-back limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday, Jacobs will probably have to practice fully Friday in order to avoid a Week 15 injury designation. That said, there's been nothing to suggest that the Raiders' top back -- who has been listed as questionable in advance of his team's last three games -- won't continue to tough things out this Sunday against the Patriots.

Limited practice Wednesday
Jacobs (quadriceps/hand) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
Analysis: Jacobs managed quad and calf issues during Week 14 prep and is now dealing with a hand injury that he suffered in the Raiders' 17-16 loss to the Rams last Thursday. That said, the Raiders are expecting Jacobs to be ready to play against the Patriots this weekend. Unless he practices fully Thursday or Friday, however, Jacobs will likely approach the contest with an injury designation.

Slated for tests on finger
Jacobs is set to undergo tests after injuring a pinkie finger in Thursday's 17-16 loss to the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The running back underwent some initial X-rays during the game, which returned negative. Jacobs was able to return to action after popping his finger back into place, finishing the night with 27 carries for 99 yards and a touchdown while adding two catches for 15 yards. Jacobs has some added healing time ahead of the team's Dec. 18 contest against the Patriots in Week 15.

Another hefty workload in loss
Jacobs rushed 27 times for 99 yards and a touchdown while securing both targets for 15 yards in the Raiders' 17-16 loss to the Rams on Thursday night.
Analysis: Jacobs opened the game in trademark fashion with a one-yard touchdown run to cap off a 12-play, 75-yard march on the Raiders' first possession. However, yards were much more at a premium throughout the rest of the game, and Jacobs also missed some time tending to a hand injury early in the second half that seemed to continue to affect him whenever he attempted to stiff-arm defenders. The star back, who saw his streak of 100-yard games narrowly stopped at three, will now get some much-needed…read more

Limited again
Jacobs (quadriceps) was again listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice-report, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Raiders again held a walk-through in favor of an actual practice, so his limited participation is just an estimate. Given Jacobs' heavy workload over the past four games and the short week ahead of Thursday's game against the Rams, it is not surprising that Las Vegas is opting to err on the side of caution here. While there is no real worry at this point to think his Week 14 status is in any danger, it will be worth monitoring his status on the team's final injury report Wednesday.

Listed as limited on estimate
Jacobs (quadriceps/calf) was a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: The Raiders didn't practice Monday, so the report was merely an estimate. Jacobs has totaled 108 touches over his past four games, so his appearance on the injury report can likely be attributed to rest. He'll have two more opportunities to log a full practice before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Thursday's matchup against the Rams, but at this point, there doesn't appear to be any indication that Jacobs is in danger of missing Week 14.

Jacobs carried the ball 26 times for 144 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Chargers. He also caught both his targets for six yards.
Analysis: For the second straight week, Jacobs came into the game with a calf injury that made it uncertain if he would even play, and for the second week he looked unbothered by the issue as he shredded a run defense that seemed helpless to stop him.

Analysis: Jacobs was the only Raider to log a rushing attempt, and he recorded his highest number of carries since Week 4. He was largely held in check on the ground aside from a 15-yard carry early in the third quarter, but his biggest play of the day late in the final quarter was a 43-yard reception to set up a game-tying field goal.

Jacobs managed a few chunk plays in the second half of the game to salvage his performance, highlighted by gains of 15 and 13 yards -- the latter of which came on a reception. Though Jacobs has failed to find the end zone or top 100 total yards in each of his last two games, he still commands almost all of the work out of the Las Vegas backfield and should remain a reliable producer as a result.

Look for added context regarding the running back's Week 3 status to arrive no later than Friday's injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. If Jacobs is out or limited this weekend, Brandon Bolden (hamstring, limited Thursday), Ameer Abdullah and Zamir White are candidates to log added backfield work versus Tennessee.

Big workload with mediocre results
Jacobs ran for 69 yard on 19 carries against Arizona on Sunday, adding a 12-yard catch on one target.
Analysis: Jacobs' workload was reassuring in this game, as Zamir White saw just one carry and Ameer Abdullah logged just one target. Unfortunately for Jacobs' fantasy investors, his next matchup is a road game against the Titans, a defense that could prove to be a more challenging matchup than the Cardinals were.

Efficient with light usage
Jacobs ran for 57 yards on 10 carries and caught his only target for 16 yards against the Chargers on Sunday.
Analysis: The Raiders never gained scoreboard leverage over the Chargers in this game and as a result maintained a catch-up mentality for almost the entire contest. Jacobs' rushing usage suffered as a result, even with his solid efficiency on the ground. The Raiders lost with this approach, so new coach Josh McDaniels might have reason to involve Jacobs earlier in a Week 2 matchup against Arizona.

May cede more snaps this season
Jacobs remains on track to open the season as the Raiders' starting running back but could cede some goal-line carries to Zamir White and some passing-down snaps to Ameer Abdullah and Brandon Bolden, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Worry surrounding Jacobs' role was first piqued when he played in the Hall of Fame Game while nearly all the Raiders' other starters sat out. He's since been held out of two preseason games to quiet some concern in regard to the Week 1 starting job, but there's still a decent chance Jacobs sees his workload reduced relative to past seasons. He's never drawn much playing time in obvious passing situations during his career, but he ranked in the top eight in team share of inside-the-five carries…read more

Back at practice
Jacobs (undisclosed) returned to practice Tuesday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The running back had missed time due to an unspecified issue, but now that he's back on the field, Jacobs will look to cement his role atop the Raiders' backfield depth chart. With the team slated to move on from Kenyan Drake, Jacobs and Zamir White appear poised to handle the bulk of the early-down work for Las Vegas, with Ameer Abdullah and Brandon Bolden profiling as the squad's primary change-of-pace options heading into Week 1.

Remains sidelined
Jacobs (undisclosed) wasn't spotted at practice Thursday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Reed previously noted that Jacobs has been sidelined since Aug. 12, but so far it hasn't been made clear what's causing the running back's absences. With that in mind, Jacobs could be trending toward sitting out Saturday's preseason game against the Dolphins.

Jacobs didn't practice Wednesday due to an unspecified issue, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

Doesn't play against Vikings
Jacobs didn't appear in the Raiders' 26-20 preseason win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: Jacobs was one of the few starters to play during the Hall of Fame Game against the Jaguars, but he didn't take the field Sunday. Ameer Abdullah was also held out for rest purposes, so Zamir White served as the starting running back and rushed five times for 13 yards while securing two of three targets for four yards.

No trade plans
Coach Josh McDaniels has refuted speculation that the Raiders are looking to trade Jacobs, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Jacobs, whose fifth-year contract option was turned down by the franchise this spring, logged seven touches in this past Thursday's preseason opener, an outcome that McDaniels downplayed, noting that the Raiders are using the preseason to get their running backs acclimated to game action, while building chemistry behind the team's offensive line. Also in the mix for touches in Las Vegas' backfield behind Jacobs -- who is listed atop the team's posted depth chart -- are Zamir White, Kenyan…read more

Surprising appearance downplayed
Raiders coach Josh McDaniel suggested Jacobs played in Thursday's preseason opener because it's difficult for running backs to simulate game action in practice, NFL.com reports. "I always think it's good for backs to carry the ball in the preseason," McDaniels said. "There's a lot of things that happen when you're getting tackled and hit that you can't simulate in practice."
Analysis: It reeks of coach-speak, but that doesn't mean Jacobs' appearance in the Hall of Fame Game is cause for total panic. For one thing, the Raiders didn't rest all their starters the way the Jaguars did, instead selectively sitting players based on age and/or status. And while Jacobs may be one of the Raiders' most prominent players from a fantasy standpoint, he doesn't compare all that favorably to other starting RBs around the league. He does compare favorably to the other guys on the Vegas depth…read more

Explosive in preseason opener
Jacobs rushed five times for 30 yards and brought in both targets for 14 yards during the Raiders' 27-11 preseason win over the Jaguars in Thursday's Hall of Fame Game.
Analysis: Jacobs was the biggest name on the Raiders offense to see action Thursday, and he made good use of his time on the field as his final line indicates. Playing on Las Vegas' first two drives, the 24-year-old rattled off gains of 12 and nine yards and also put together a strong showing through the air. Jacobs figures to see similar usage in at least two of the Raiders' remaining three preseason games as a tune-up for another season as the team's lead back.

Jacobs was held out of practices at June minicamp due to an undisclosed injury, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With no report of offseason surgery or a major injury, Jacobs seemingly has a good chance to be ready for the start of training camp in late July. He's entering the fourth and final season of his rookie contract after the Raiders declined to pick up his fifth-year option for $8.03 million. Between that and the presence of a new coaching staff, Jacobs won't automatically have the same role as in past seasons, though it helps his cause to have modest competition for early down snaps -- namely…read more

Analysis: The same applies to fellow 2019 first-rounders Clelin Ferrell and Johnathan Abram, though GM Dave Ziegler relayed that the team looks "forward to working with all three players and (will) evaluate each situation individually moving forward." With that, Jacobs remains under contract with Las Vegas this coming season, and it's still possible the Raiders will look to keep the 24-year-old around beyond 2022, especially if produces well in the final year of his rookie deal.

Solid road showing
Jacobs ran for 83 yards on 13 carries and caught four passes for 44 yards on five targets against Cincinnati on Saturday.
Analysis: Jacobs could have had a bigger day if the Raiders had been more competitive, but they only scored one touchdown in the 26-19 loss and didn't have the luxury of leaning on their run game. Jacobs' pass-catching showing was reassuring and his production as a receiver generally in 2021 could give the Raiders reason to give him more pass-catching work in future years, though to this point in his career Jacobs has been dependent on run-viable game flows for standout fantasy production.

Good to go for Saturday's game
Jacobs (ribs) doesn't carry an injury designation for Saturday's playoff game against the Bengals after being listed as a limited practice participant this week, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
Analysis: The same applies to tight end Darren Waller (knee), which sets the stage for the Las Vegas offense to have its key playmakers available for the team's wild-card contest. In the Raiders' 35-32 overtime win over the Chargers in Week 18, Jacobs parlayed his 57 snaps into 26 carries for a season-high 132 yards and a touchdown to go along with two catches for 12 yards.

In the Raiders' playoff opener this Saturday, he'll be taking on a Bengals team that held him to 61 total yards and no touchdowns back in Week 11 when the Raiders lost by 19 points.

Remains limited by rib injury

He eventually was deemed active for Sunday's game against the Chargers, and he went off to the tune of 28 touches for 144 yards from scrimmage and one rushing TD in a 35-32 overtime victory.

Analysis: Jacobs suited up for this game despite carrying a questionable tag into the weekend, but the rib injury did not appear to hamper Las Vegas' top rushing option. The 28 touches tied the 23-year-old's previous season high, while the 132 rushing yards set a new highwater mark heading into the postseason.

Totals 80 yards, finds end zone
Jacobs rushed the ball 16 times for 63 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts. He added four receptions for 17 yards.
Analysis: Jacobs enjoyed a productive day primarily on the basis of volume, as he topped 20 touches for the fourth time in his last six games. He wasn't all that efficient, as he managed only one gain that went for double-digit yards. However, he did salvage his effort with a two-yard plunge into the end zone midway through the first quarter. Jacobs hasn't been the most efficient performer this season, though he did surpass 1,000 total yards for the third consecutive campaign.

Jacobs is on a roll to close out the season, compiling 490 scrimmage yards over the last five games, and he'll look to keep his momentum going in Week 17 against the Colts.

Salvages performance as receiver
Jacobs rushed the ball nine times for 24 yards in Sunday's 48-9 loss to the Chiefs. He added five receptions on six targets for 46 yards.
Analysis: Jacobs began the game in inauspicious fashion by fumbling on his first carry. His day didn't get much better on the ground, as he was limited to fewer than 30 yards for the third time this season. On the other hand, Jacobs did manage to chip in as a receiver, highlighted by catches of 14 and 10 yards. Work as a pass catcher has been the key to his production of late, as he now has at least four receptions in five of his last six games.

Jacobs carried the ball 13 times for 52 yards and a touchdown and caught all nine of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 17-15 loss to Washington.
Analysis: He tied Hunter Renfrow for the team lead in receptions, as Derek Carr didn't show a lot of trust in any of his other options through the air, and Jacobs' one-yard TD plunge in the fourth quarter set the Raiders up to potentially tie the game at 14-14, but they weren't able to cash in a two-point conversion.

Analysis: The Raiders were on bye last week and the time off evidently allowed Jacobs to recover from his chest issue. As a result, he's in line to retain his lead RB role Sunday against the Giants.

Analysis: The Raiders have a well-timed Week 8 bye, which will give the banged-up Jacobs extra time to heal up after he exited Sunday's 33-22 win early. Jacobs battled toe and ankle injuries early in the season, but he has gotten on a roll lately and extended his touchdown streak to three games prior to hurting his chest against Philly.

Leaves Sunday's game
Jacobs exited Sunday's game against the Eagles with a chest injury.
Analysis: Prior to departing the contest, Jacobs logged six carries for 29 yards and a TD and caught three passes for 39 yards. With Peyton Barber inactive Sunday, Kenyan Drake is next up for the Raiders' carries, with Jalen Richard on hand for change-of-pace looks.

Finds end zone
Jacobs ran for 53 yards and one touchdown on 16 carries while catching his only target for 29 yards against Denver on Sunday.
Analysis: Jacobs was somewhat plodding in the ground game with just 3.3 yards per carry, but he provided a steadying presence for the Raiders as they protected a lead for most of the game. The 29-yard reception is hopefully a good omen for Jacobs' rushing efficiency in upcoming games, because he has generally struggled from scrimmage through four games (3.2 yards per carry, 5.5 yards per target). Jacobs' investors will hope he can maintain his touchdown production going forward, though hopefully with…read more

Cleared to face Broncos
Jacobs (illness) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos after returning to a limited practice Friday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jacobs missed Thursday's practice session, but the running back's limited participation Friday and subsequent final listing on the Raiders' Week 6 injury report sets the stage for him to head the team's rushing attack this weekend against a stout Denver defense that has allowed an average of 85.4 rushing yards to date. Meanwhile, Peyton Barber (toe) is available to spell Jacobs in early down situations Sunday, while Kenyan Drake and possibly Jalen Richard are slated to work in change-of-pace…read more

Makes late appearance at practice
Jacobs (illness) made an appearance at Friday's practice, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Initially, Jacobs wasn't present at the start of the media portion of the session, per Reed, but the running back appears as if he'll get into some drills. Jacobs showed up on Thursday's practice report as a non-participant due to an illness, so it'll be interesting to see how he's listed Friday, both in terms of activity level and for Sunday's game at Denver.

Another absence Friday
Jacobs (illness) didn't practice Friday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: In a rarity this season, Jacobs didn't appear on the first injury report of Week 6 prep, only to show up as a non-participant Thursday due to an illness. The ailment is keeping him out of drills for a second straight session Friday, so it remains to be seen how the Raiders will list him for Sunday's contest at Denver. Another absence for Jacobs likely would result in Peyton Barber handling most of the early down work out of the backfield, while Kenyan Drake and Jalen Richard would be poised for…read more

Comes down with illness
Jacobs didn't practice Thursday due to an illness, Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Jacobs just can't avoid the injury report this season. While he avoided it entirely Wednesday, he made yet another appearance Thursday, only this time for non-injury reasons. It's unclear whether the illness is related to COVID-19, but his status should be watched closely to get a sense of his potential to play Sunday at Denver.

Salvages day with TD
Jacobs rushed 15 times for 48 yards and a touchdown and brought in four of five targets for 19 yards in the Raiders' 20-9 loss to the Bears on Sunday.
Analysis: Jacobs was once again the unequivocal lead back, but for the third time in as many contests this season, his overall rushing touches were limited by game script. The third-year back was able to give his overall fantasy numbers a nice boost by finding the end zone from one yard out early in the fourth quarter, his first touchdown since Week 1. The 15 carries Jacobs saw qualified as a season high, and he'll perhaps have even more opportunity on the ground in a Week 6 road matchup against the…read more

Returns to full practice
Jacobs (ankle) practiced fully Thursday.
Analysis: Jacobs was limited Wednesday, but his return to a full session Thursday paves the way for him to continue leading the Las Vegas backfield Sunday against the Bears. With fellow back Peyton Barber (toe) listed a questionable and change-of-pace back Kenyan Drake having logged limited touches in the Week 4 loss to the Chargers, Jacobs could be busy this weekend against a Chicago defense that has allowed an average of 112 rushing yards per game to date.

Jacobs (ankle) was limited in practice Wednesday.
Analysis: After missing two games with the ankle injury, Jacobs returned to action in Monday's loss to the Chargers, logging 36 of the Raiders' 57 snaps on offense while carrying 13 times for 40 yards and catching all five of his targets for 17 yards. With no reported setbacks in the contest, Jacobs' limitations Wednesday are likely indicative of rep management versus an injury setback.

High usage in return
Jacobs rushed 13 times for 40 yards and caught all five of his targets for 17 yards in Monday night's 28-14 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Jacobs made his first appearance since Week 1 but found it tough to move the ball against Los Angeles' rush defense. On the bright side, he contributed a handful of receptions, garnering a healthy 18 touches overall in his return to Las Vegas' backfield. That involvement should offer encouragement surrounding Jacobs' stock as he aims to put his early season injury concerns behind him ahead of the Week 5 matchup against the Bears.

Returning from two-game absence
Jacobs (ankle) is listed as active Monday against the Chargers in L.A.
Analysis: After sitting out the past two games due to ankle and toe injuries, Jacobs is back in action following limited showings at every Week 4 practice. His workload remains to be seen, though. There's a chance he shares early down work with Peyton Barber and yields most change-of-pace duties to Kenyan Drake, but Jacobs nonetheless is available to the Raiders offense again.

Game-time decision for Monday
Jacobs (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Chargers and likely will be a game-time decision, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jacobs was spotted participating in Saturday's practice, but the Raiders understandably have been cautious with the 2019 first-round pick, holding him out both of the last two games. According to coach Jon Gruden, Jacobs will be put through a pre-game gauntlet to determine his status ahead of the divisional contest. While the team spent lavishly on the acquisition of Kenyan Drake this offseason, it's been veteran castoff Peyton Barber who has taken on a heavy workload with Jacobs sidelined,…read more

Jacobs (ankle) returned to a limited practice Thursday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jacobs, who has missed two straight games, was unable to practice at all last week, so his return to the field Thursday is no doubt a step in the right direction. However, when asked about the running back's chances of playing Monday night against the Chargers, coach Jon Gruden said, "We'll see. I'd say he's questionable at the moment." If Jacobs is out or limited Monday, Peyton Barber would once again be in line for added work in the Raiders' rushing attack in tandem with Kenyan Drake.

Coach Jon Gruden said Monday that Jacobs (toe/ankle) is day-to-day and "very questionable" to face the Dolphins in Week 3, Adam Hill of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Jacobs wasn't able to suit up against the Steelers in Week 2, and it looks like he's no lock to return to full health in time to face Miami. Kenyan Drake was out-carried by Peyton Barber in Jacobs' absence Sunday, but neither running back managed much in the way of efficiency on the ground against Pittsburgh's stout defensive front.

Rather than continue to gut it out, Jacobs will get a week off to heal in hopes of returning closer to full health before the Raiders host the Dolphins in Week 3. Kenyan Drake could be in line for a three-down role Sunday, with Peyton Barber spelling him on early downs and the possibility of a Trey Ragas sighting or two.

Jacobs didn't practice Wednesday due to toe and ankle injuries, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jacobs' exclusion from practice isn't too surprising, with the Raiders having played Monday and the running back having previously suggested that he may have some maintenance days on certain Wednesdays. Still, Tafur notes that Jacobs is banged up at this stage of the week, making his status worth monitoring as Sunday's game against the Steelers approaches. Wednesday's session was a walk-through, so what Jacobs is able to do Thursday should provide better hint about his Week 2 status.

Jacobs rushed 10 times for 34 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 33-27 overtime win against the Ravens. He also caught one of two targets for six yards.

His first touchdown came on a two-yard plunge in the first half, then Jacobs tied the game with an impressive 15-yard end-zone trip in the fourth quarter.

Analysis: While Jacobs might match the Wheatley aesthetic more than the speedy, pass-catching skill set of Garner, Jacobs is still the heavy favorite to remain the clear leader between himself and Drake. Drake, meanwhile, is expected to play an off-the-bench role with a pass-catching emphasis. Particularly if the Raiders cut or bench Jalen Richard, there could be room for Jacobs and Drake to coexist.

Jacobs won't be charged with a DUI following a Jan. 4 arrest related to a single vehicle collision in Las Vegas, Nev., Glenn Puit of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Jacobs' legal woes aren't over, though, as he faces a misdemeanor count of failure to decrease speed or use due care under certain circumstances. Once the legal process works itself out -- he has a March court date on the docket -- the NFL could levy a punishment if he was deemed to violate the personal conduct policy. On the field this past season, Jacobs accounted for 1,303 yards from scrimmage and 12 touchdowns on 273 carries and 33 catches (45 targets) in 15 games.

The second-year back finished the campaign with 1,065 rushing yards and a career-high 12 touchdowns, but he dealt with nagging injuries once again and has yet to play a full 16-game schedule.

Held in check vs. Colts
Jacobs (ankle) carried 13 times for 49 yards and caught three of five targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 44-27 loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Jacobs, who came into the game nursing a nagging injury, managed just 3.8 yards per carry against a tough Indianapolis front. His rushing attempts were limited by a lopsided score, and he failed to make a notable impact in the passing game despite receiving his most targets since Week 1. Assuming Jacobs didn't aggravate the injury, he'll look to get back on track Thursday against an inconsistent Chargers defensive unit.

The 22-year-old had only seven carries for 27 yards and three catches for 17 yards Week 12 and sat out last week's loss to the Falcons with the ankle injury. He gets a tough draw Sunday against a Colts run defense that's allowing 3.8 yards per carry.

Should face Indianapolis
Jacobs (ankle), who is listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday against the Colts, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The second-year tailback received the questionable tag after practicing in a limited capacity Thursday and Friday, and he's on track to suit up Sunday. Jacobs sat out last week's win over the Jets after he sustained the ankle sprain Week 12, but it appears his absence will be limited to a single game.

Listed as questionable for Week 14
Jacobs (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts after logging limited practices both Thursday and Friday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com
Analysis: Jacobs sat out Wednesday's session, but the fact that he practiced Thursday and Friday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- would seem to bode well for his Week 14 availability. Final confirmation of the running back's status will arrive once the Raiders inactives are released in advance of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Resumes practicing
Jacobs (ankle) returned to a limited practice Thursday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It remains to be seen how the Raiders list Jacobs for Sunday's game against the Colts, but his return to the field Thursday, albeit in a limited capacity, suggests that the running back has a chance to return to action this weekend. If that doesn't happen, however, Devontae Booker would be in line to lead the team's backfield again, with Jalen Richard and Theo Riddick on hand to work in complementary/change-of-pace roles.

Misses Wednesday's practice
Jacobs (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Earlier this week, coach Jon Gruden was pessimistic about Jacobs' chances of suiting up Sunday against the Colts, and not much seems to have changed on that front. If Jacobs is forced to miss a second consecutive game this weekend, Devontae Booker would be in line to headline Las Vegas' backfield again, with Jalen Richard and Theo Riddick also on hand to provide support.

Looking unlikely for Week 14
Coach Jon Gruden said Monday that he doesn't have much confidence that Jacobs (ankle) will be available for Sunday's game against the Colts, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Jacobs didn't practice at all before being ruled out for last weekend's narrow win over the Jets, and it looks like he could be trending toward a two-game absence due to an ankle sprain. Devontae Booker was ineffective in the lead role versus New York, but he could get another chance to handle a notable workload against Indianapolis' stout defensive front.

Could play Week 14
Jacobs (ankle) will not play Sunday against the Jets, but the Raiders are hopeful the running back can return in Week 14, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: It's a bit of an optimistic tone considering the running back didn't practice all week. Of course, the Raiders would like to have their star running back healthy as the team pushes for a playoff spot, but the tone of Saturday's latest report seems to suggest it'll once again come down to Jacobs' practice status later next week. For now, expect Devontae Booker to get the bulk of the carries in Jacobs' absence.

Sits out another practice
Jacobs (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jacobs has now missed back-to-back practices due to an ankle sprain sustained during last weekend's blowout loss to the Falcons. It's been suggested that the issue is relatively minor and that Jacobs still has a shot to suit up Week 13, but he'd most likely need to practice in some capacity Friday in order to play during Sunday's game against the Jets. Devontae Booker and Jalen Richard, both of whom are practicing in full, would stand to lead Las Vegas' backfield if Jacobs can't go.

Analysis: Ian Rapoport of NFL Network previously suggested that Jacobs has a chance to play through his ankle sprain Sunday against the Jets, but with a missed practice under his belt to start the week, the running back's status needs to be monitored in the coming days.

Could play this week
Jacobs (ankle) has a shot to suit up against the Jets on Sunday despite his sprained ankle, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jacobs' medical evaluations Monday confirmed that he's avoided any sort of major injury and is simply dealing with an ankle sprain. It looks as though he has a fair shot to take the field Week 13, depending on how well he holds up at practice. If Jacobs were to miss any time, however, Devontae Booker would be the favorite to lead Las Vegas' backfield.

Dealing with ankle sprain
Jacobs suffered a sprained ankle during Sunday's 43-6 blowout loss to the Falcons, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jacobs had just seven carries for 27 yards and three catches for 17 yards versus the Falcons, as game script and the ankle injury he sustained mid-game minimized his involvement. He also lost a fumble near the Raiders' own end zone in the third quarter. Jacobs is slated to undergo more medical tests Monday, but Rapoport's note that the injury "looked worse than it is" suggests optimism that he could be good to go for Week 13's favorable road matchup against the Jets.

Loses fumble in blowout loss
Jacobs (ankle) registered 27 rushing yards on seven carries while catching all three of his targets for 17 receiving yards during Sunday's 43-6 loss to Atlanta. He also lost one fumble.
Analysis: Jacobs' fumble came at the 1:53 mark of the third quarter with Las Vegas backed up at its own 10-yard line. The giveaway allowed Atlanta to tack on another field goal to an already-dominant 30-6 lead. The second-year pro out of Alabama posted his second-lowest rushing total of the 2020 campaign during Sunday's loss, as the game script heavily restricted his involvement with the Raiders trailing by 13 going into halftime. It's hard to imagine Jacobs' usage fading for the same reason Week 13 with…read more

Jacobs (hip) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Analysis: Jacobs was added to the Raiders' Week 12 injury report Thursday when he logged a limited practice. Though he remained limited Friday, the running back now has the green light for Sunday's contest, as does reserve Jalen Richard (chest). Assuming no in-game setbacks, Jacobs will be in line for his usual lead role versus Atlanta, a context that has through 10 games resulted in him averaging a fantasy-friendly 19.9 carries for 75.5 yards per game -- to go along with nine TDs -- as well as 2.4…read more

Jacobs was added to the Raiders' Week 12 injury report after being listed as limited by a hip issue Thursday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Jacobs practiced fully Wednesday, so his addition to the report makes the running back's status worth monitoring as Sunday's game against the Falcons approaches.

TD salvages modest rushing output
Jacobs rushed 17 times for 55 yards and a touchdown while catching his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Jacobs was held under 4.0 yards per carry by Kansas City's defense for the second time in as many meetings this year. Unlike their previous meeting back in Week 5, the bruising back saw fewer touches and one less score despite the Raiders playing ahead for the majority of the contest. Perhaps a more run-centric gameplan could have altered the disappointing outcome of the contest for the rising star and the rest of Raider Nation.

Rolls through Broncos in Week 10
Jacobs registered 112 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries, adding four catches for 24 yards during Sunday's 37-12 win against Denver.
Analysis: Jacobs torched the Broncos for 5.3 yards per carry with assistance from five runs of nine yards or more, notching his third multi-TD outing of 2020 in the process. The 2019 No. 24 overall draft choice has garnered 15 or more offensive touches in every game but one this season. Las Vegas prepares for a rematch with Kansas City in Week 11; the first time the teams met this season, Jacobs compiled 85 scrimmage yards and two TDs against the Chiefs' 28th-ranked rush defense.

Finds end zone Sunday
Jacobs carried the ball 14 times for 65 yards and a touchdown and caught his only target for three yards in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: After getting a season-high 31 totes last week in Cleveland, Jacobs saw a much smaller workload this time around -- perhaps due to the knee injury that limited him in practice during the week -- and ceded eight carries to Devontae Booker, but he was still able to score his sixth TD of the year on a 14-yard run in the second quarter. Jacobs should see something more like his typical volume of touches in Week 10 against a stingy Broncos run defense.

Active for Sunday's game
Jacobs (knee/illness) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: Jacobs is coming off a Week 8 effort in which he logged his biggest workload of the season, racking up 31 carries for 129 yards in the Raiders' 16-6 win over the Browns, which was played in windy and less than balmy conditions in Cleveland. With Sunday's game being played at SoFi Stadium, weather won't factor into the game plan; nevertheless, barring any in-game setbacks, Jacobs still seems destined to remain fairly busy versus the Chargers, given that he's averaging 21 carries per game to date.

Analysis: Jacobs was limited in all three of Vegas' practice sessions this week, but he'll be out there on game day. He was stifled by Tampa Bay's league-best run defense last time out, but Jacobs should find more running room against a Browns defense that has allowed either a rushing or receiving touchdown to an opposing running back in all but one game this season.

However, the second-year back was able to power into the end zone from seven and two yards out in the fourth quarter, and a seven-yard run on Las Vegas' final drive helped ice the win by forcing KC to use its last timeout.

Analysis: Buffalo's front seven didn't give Jacobs much room to roam, and his 3.2 yards per carry was his worst single-game average so far this season. The second-year back should be more productive in Week 5 against a Chiefs defense that's given up 5.3 YPC through its first three games.

Jacobs (hip) rushed 16 times for 71 yards and caught three of four targets for 12 yards while losing a fumble in Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: New England excels at shutting down opposing top players, and that defensive approach coupled with Jacobs playing through a hip injury resulted in a mediocre performance from the young running back. Things don't get much easier with the undefeated Bills coming to town in Week 4, though Buffalo did allow over 100 rushing yards to Rams running back Darrell Henderson on Sunday.

General manager Mike Mayock said the Raiders expect Jacobs (shoulder) to increase his contributions in the passing game during his second pro season.

Ruled out for season finale
Jacobs (shoulder/illness) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Analysis: Initially deemed doubtful, it's no surprise that Jacobs will sit out for the season finale. DeAndre Washington and Jalen Richard will handle the backfield against the Broncos. Jacobs -- a rookie first-rounder out of Alabama -- had a fantastic season prior to fracturing his shoulder, and he'll end the season with 1,150 rushing yards and seven touchdowns while adding 20 catches for 166 yards. He should be able to make a full recovery for the 2020 season and resume duties as a bell cow.

Discomfort in leg addressed
The Raiders relayed Thursday that Jacobs "woke up with discomfort in his leg on Wednesday" and was subsequently "evaluated and treated for a superficial skin infection," Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: The statement supports the notion that the procedure Jacobs underwent Wednesday won't impact his status for Sunday's game against the Broncos. That said, the running back was unable to play in Week 16 due to a lingering shoulder injury, and that's still something that could impact his availability this weekend.

Addresses procedure
In the wake of reports that he underwent an unspecified procedure Wednesday night, Jacobs relayed that the issue addressed was not a football injury, rather he was dealing with an infection, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: We'll look for added clarity on the running back's status later Thursday, but Jacobs -- who was sidelined by a lingering shoulder injury in Week 16 -- previously posted an image which suggests that Wednesday's procedure dealt with a lower-leg issue. Meanwhile, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network indicated that Jacobs' procedure "should not affect" his status for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Expected to play after procedure
The Raiders are still expected to have Jacobs (shoulder) available for Sunday's game in Denver, even though the rookie underwent a procedure Christmas Day to address an apparent lower leg issue, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jacobs broke the news of his procedure early Thursday via his personal Instagram account, per Vic Tafur of The Athletic. The running back has been contending with a fractured right shoulder since the Raiders' Week 7 loss to the Packers and has missed two of the team's last three games because of it, but since bandages were spotted on his lower leg in the Instagram post, his procedure appears to be unrelated to the shoulder. The Raiders are expected to provide more clarity on Jacobs' situation…read more

Reportedly undergoes procedure
Jacobs posted on his Instagram page late Wednesday night that he underwent an unspecified procedure, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Per Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle, the running back -- whose post included an image of his lower/leg foot wrapped in a bandage -- relayed that his procedure "went great." Jacobs missed the Raiders' Week 16 win over the Chargers due to a shoulder injury that he's been dealing with/managing since Oct. 20. That ongoing issue, plus Wednesday's post, which requires further context, obviously clouds Jacobs' status for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Broncos.

Jacobs (shoulder) relayed via a post on his personal Instagram account that he underwent an unspecified surgery Wednesday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

Non-participant Wednesday
Jacobs (shoulder/illness) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Jacobs, who sat out the Week 16 win over the Chargers due to a shoulder injury, is also tending to a second concern heading into Sunday's season finale against the Broncos. Once the Raiders return to the field Thursday, fantasy managers should have a better sense of Jacobs' chances of returning to action this weekend.

Jacobs (shoulder) participated in Tuesday's walkthrough, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Absent two of the past three games due to a fractured right shoulder plate, Jacobs appears to be putting himself on a path to another appearance before the end of the regular season. Considering the Raiders still have a chance to make the playoffs, however faint it may be, it would behoove the team to use the impressive rookie in Week 17. Ultimately, Jacobs' activity level the next few days will guide Oakland's decision-making process. DeAndre Washington and Jalen Richard are on hand in the…read more

Could play in season finale
Coach Jon Gruden said Jacobs (shoulder) may be ready for the Raiders' season finale against the Broncos, Jerry McDonald of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Jacobs has missed two of the last three games due to a fractured shoulder, but he handled bell-cow duties despite the injury in Week 15's loss to the Jaguars, rushing 24 times for 89 yards and catching two passes for 20 yards. The Raiders haven't been eliminated from playoff contention yet, so the rookie first-round pick's presence obviously would increase their chances of securing the final spot.

Analysis: Per Vic Tafur of The Athletic, the Raiders will give Jacobs a chance to rest his fractured right shoulder this week, then see if the running back can give it a go in the Dec. 29 season finale against the Broncos. With Jacobs out of the mix for the second time in three weeks, DeAndre Washington is expected to headline the Raiders' rushing attack, with Jalen Richard on hand to work in a complementary role.

Shoulder remains an issue
Coach Jon Gruden acknowledged Monday that Jacobs -- who has been dealing with a shoulder injury since Week 7 -- had a hard time taking off his shoulder pads after Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: Gruden praised the running back's toughness, while suggesting that the status of Jacobs for the coming weeks will continue be in some question. That's not to say that the 6-8 Raiders are inclined to shut Jacobs down, but he'll need to be monitored closely during practice in the coming days to see if his shoulder rebounds well enough for him to play this coming weekend against the Chargers.

Tops 100 scrimmage yards in return
Jacobs carried the ball 24 times for 89 yards and caught two of three targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Jaguars.
Analysis: After missing last week's loss to the Titans with a shoulder issue, Jacobs saw his usual workload in his return to the lineup and topped 100 scrimmage yards for the ninth time in 13 games. The rookie hasn't found the end zone since Week 10 against the Chargers, but he'll get a chance to end the drought when the two teams meet for the second time next Sunday.

Active as expected
Jacobs (shoulder) is active for Sunday's Week 15 tilt against the Jaguars.
Analysis: Jacobs had predicted he'd be ready to go earlier in the week, and this validates the rookie's pledge. He'll be locked into a premium matchup versus a Jaguars defense that's been shockingly poor against the run this season, allowing 22.7 fantasy points per game to running backs (third most) in standard scoring formats. Jacobs is expected to play without any specific limitations, sending both Jalen Richard and DeAndre Washington back into complementary roles.

Questionable, but plans to play
Jacobs (shoulder), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Jaguars, indicated Friday that he plans to play, though he wouldn't guarantee that outcome, Scott Bair of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Additionally, Jacobs noted that he won't need offseason surgery on his fractured right shoulder plate, but he'll likely require about a month and a half of rest and rehab to make a full recovery. As for Sunday's contest, Jacobs seems prepared to tough it out, but he should still be treated as a game-time decision ahead of the Raiders' 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Jacobs (shoulder) took part in the team stretch during the part of Thursday's practice open to the media, Myles Simmons of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Analysis: Jacobs was held out Week 14 due to a fractured plate in his right shoulder, which he initially suffered in the Raiders' Week 7 loss in Green Bay. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, a subsequent MRI revealed positive results, giving Jacobs a good shot to keep his DNP stretch to just one game. After logging a limited session Wednesday, Jacobs appears as if he'll at least match that activity level one day later. Thursday's injury report will reveal whether he was 'limited' or 'full'.

Practices in a limited fashion

"[Jacobs] made some improvement, but he still has to go to there and move explosively [Thursday] and Friday and do the things a running back has to do to play in this league and protect himself in this league," coach Jon Gruden said after practice. "So, we'll see what happens in the next 48 hours."
Analysis: Jacobs' participation to start Week 15 is a good sign, but coach Jon Gruden has yet to sign off on the running back returning to action Sunday against the Jaguars. If Jacobs is able to suit up this weekend, DeAndre Washington would presumably revert to a complementary role after heading the Oakland backfield in the Week 14 loss to the Titans.

Though the Jets held Jacobs to 34 yards on 10 carries in their blowout win over Oakland in Week 12, the 2019 first-round pick looks poised for a bounce-back outing against the Chiefs, who have surrendered 143.1 yards per game on the ground.

Analysis: Jacobs and starting quarterback Derek Carr were both taken out of the game late in the third quarter with the Raiders trailing 34-3. The rookie running back still is locked in as Oakland's workhorse on the ground, but nothing went right for his team in this one.

Analysis: Jacobs was quite effective on the ground, averaging 4.9 yards per carry while topping the 100-yard mark for the fifth time in the last seven games. He caught each of his three looks in the passing game but was unable to make a significant impact, though his 124 scrimmage yards were his third-highest mark of the season.

Scores twice in monster effort
Jacobs carried 28 times for 120 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-24 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Jacobs notched a new career high in rush attempts while coming four yards shy of his personal best in that category. He scored a two-yard touchdown in the first quarter and added a three-yard score just before halftime, giving him three multi-touchdown games this season. He failed to haul in either of his two targets and continues to underwhelm as a receiver, but he's otherwise been a useful fantasy asset of late. Jacobs will look to keep it up Thursday in a Week 10 matchup against the Chargers.
