I still think he's more likely to play than not (unbiased as I'm facing him so would rather him sit). He wanted to play last week and apparently the MRI looked good this week. All comes down to if the Raiders medical staff clear him for contact and if they want to roll him out there. Edited December 13, 2019 by vthokie3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He will get a pain injection before the game, MRI is clean, I'm not sure what is even still wrong with him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mmcalli884 82 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) From Adam Caplan #Raiders HC Jon Gruden on RB Josh Jacobs after practice today when asked how he looked this week: "Pretty good. He got work all three days. I think that's a good sign. I don't know how much he'll play, don't know 100% if he'll play, but it does look pretty good."#JAXvsOAK Edited December 13, 2019 by mmcalli884 2 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LongBalls 1,193 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Just enough to tank Washington's value as well. Just a smasher of a matchup though. You gotta think he at least grabs a TD even if the overall yards aren't there. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FreakFries 1,401 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Feeling like Jacobs is going to start and either via RBBC or an early Jacobs exit they are all going to be a let down Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SyNdicateZ 1,542 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Sure...he may be active but prolly wont play much of a workload. You can atleast bank on that. Seen this over and over again in the past with other players. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can almost see it, he goes one series and is spotted trotting off the field holding his shoulder. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cleanface 701 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I think he’s gonna ball out. Kid wants to play so bad. His shoulder is exactly how it’s been for weeks. Nothing new except for a negative MRI - WIN! Starting w confidence v one of the worst run D in the entire league. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

devaster 4,452 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 If he plays I think he does just fine. And it is a dream match up. I like him far more than Fournette this week if he suits up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
youngrice 1,303 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Jacobs is a stud. But between the risk of re aggravating injury, Raiders offense has been horrible lately. Combine that with Gruden's insistence of playing other RB's when behind. The upside just doesn't outweigh the risk to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And this isn’t even taking into account the real possibility of the Jags (even as bad as they are) getting a decent lead and forcing the Raiders to play catch up.

Maybe they'll get him more outside touches so he can run out a few times instead of taking the punishment Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DerrickHenrysCleats 6,510 Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 Can't believe I'm thinking about benching Jacobs but he has injury problems dating back to college. It is his first ever 16 game season. This is week 15 Raiders don't utilize him in the passing game, so he will be a 1st and 2nd down thumper only, with risk for reinjury and leaving the game, I think I have to play Dede Westbrook over him.
