Josh Jacobs Not At Mandatory Minicamp
2 years agoLas Vegas Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels said that running back Josh Jacobs isn't under contract since he hasn't signed his franchise tag and therefore isn't attending mandatory minicamp this week. The Raiders don't seem too concerned about the situation, and the 25-year-old will be back with the team once training camp begins at the end of July. Jacobs led the NFL in rushing yards (1,653) in 2022 on 340 carries and added 12 rushing touchdowns in 17 games played. He also added 53 receptions for a career-high 400 receiving yards on 64 targets for the second straight year. It was the first time the former first-rounder was able to stay healthy for a full season. Fantasy managers can't expect Jacobs to lead the league in rushing two straight years given his bruising style of play, but he'll remain a workhorse back and should at least be a midrange RB1.
