Raiders RB Josh Jacobs leaves Vegas, doesn't plan to return anytime soon

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs, who hasn’t signed his franchise tender, was spotted this morning boarding a flight leaving Las Vegas. Jacobs won’t report for training camp Tuesday and has told people close to him that he doesn’t plan to return anytime soon.

Related Players: Ameer Abdullah, Zamir White, Brandon Bolden,

Fantasy Impact:

The possibility of a holdout seems to be increasing by the week for Jacobs. Any of the above three can be concerned as late-round sprinkles at this point, with 2022 fourth-rounder Zamir White the most intriguing.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs' franchise tag remains unsigned

Raiders head coach Josh McDaniels says Josh Jacobs is not under contract (hasn’t signed franchise tag) and therefore is not at mandatory minicamp. Perfect attendance, otherwise. Once again, he spoke highly of Jacobs & is respectful of this process.

Related Players: Ameer Abdullah, Brandon Bolden, Zamir White

Fantasy Impact:

Even though we haven't heard any updates, it's hard to assume that Josh Jacobs won't be suiting up well ahead of Week 1. Zamir White would be the contingency draft for the weary, as he was technically the first running back this coaching regimen had a hand in taking last year.

Raiders beat reporter bold prediction: Zamir White finishes with more rushing yards than Josh Jacobs

This is, of course, a bold prediction. But it also comes from a very reliable source and comes with Josh Jacobs trending in the wrong direction.

Related Players: Ameer Abdullah, Brandon Bolden

Fantasy Impact:

The Raiders are currently carrying five running backs (plus a fullback), so if Jacobs really loses this much ground game work to rookie Zamir White, the veteran's fantasy season is going to be miserable. Amongst those other running backs resides Brandon Bolden, who has a rich history of catching passes out of the backfield in a Josh McDaniels offense.

Pelissero: Raiders plan to cut RB Kenyan Drake

The Raiders plan to release veteran RB Kenyan Drake, per source.

Related players: Josh Jacobs, Zamir White, Ameer Abdullah, Brandon Bolden

Fantasy Impact:

Raiders beat writer Maurice Morton added to Pelissero's tweet that he's "not surprised about this." He said Abdullah hasn’t played the last 2 preseason games and he clearly surpassed Drake on the Raiders RB depth chart. In his eyes, the depth chart goes: Jacobs, White, Abdullah and Bolden. Drake could catch on somewhere else but his role may not be as significant as it once was.
