Josh Jacobs Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs is not expected to practice much, if at all, this week with his calf strain, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. "He’ll get around-the-clock treatment in hopes of playing Sunday against the Chargers," Pelissero adds. It's a surprising report after Jacobs blew up for 303 total yards and 2 TDs vs. the Seahawks last week -- after hurting that calf on Friday. We'll keep you updated on his status throughout the week. If Jacobs can't go on Sunday, Vegas would likely deploy a committee with RBs Zamir White, Ameer Abdullah and Brandon Bolden.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs entered Sunday questionable with a calf issue that arose in Friday's practice. He finished the day with a 33-229-2 rushing line and 6-74 receiving in a 40-34 win over the Seahawks. Jacobs finished off an already strong outing with an 86-yard TD dash in OT. Jacobs set season highs in both rushing yards and receiving yards and topped 20 carries for the 3rd straight game. He's a weekly must start the rest of the way.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. He was added to the injury report and limited in Friday’s practice with a calf. He evidently looked and felt good enough in pregame warmups, though, and we haven’t heard anything about him being limited today.

ESPN's Adam Schefter calls Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (calf) "likely" to play against the Seahawks today, barring a pregame setback. Jacobs was added to the injury report on Friday and listed as questionable, which certainly adds risk to his Week 12 fantasy profile. But he'd be tough to bench if he ends up active. Raiders-Seahawks doesn't kick off until 4:05 pm ET, so Jacobs owners would be wise to have a late-game alternative lined up just in case Jacobs ends up missing this one.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs is questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks after suffering an apparent calf injury in Friday's practice. We haven't seen details on the issue, so we'll need to watch his status throughout the weekend.

After 3 weeks short of 100-yard territory, Raiders RB Josh Jacobs returned in Sunday's OT win at Denver. He ran for 109 yards on 24 attempts, adding 51 more yards on 3 receptions. Jacobs claimed all Raiders carries for the game. RB Ameer Abdullah (4) and Brandon Bolden (1) each drew targets, however.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs put forth a solid fantasy outing in Sunday's loss to the Colts, thanks primarily to his 1st TD in 3 weeks. Jacobs rushed 21 times for 78 yards, including the 1-yard score in the 3rd quarter. He added 6 receptions for 28 yards (among 8 targets) to make it a strong PPR performance. Zamir White drew the only other RB carries, losing a yard on 2 attempts. Amber Abdullah claimed 4 targets, catching all 4 for 33 yards. Next comes a tough Denver defense in Week 11. Jacobs had little trouble in the 1st meeting, though, rushing for 28-144-2 and adding 5 catches for 31 yards.

Raiders WR Hunter Renfrow has been placed on IR with an oblique injury. He'll miss at least the next 4 games, making Week 14 his earliest possible return. Renfrow has dealt with a few different injuries this season and averaged just 4.8 targets, 3.5 caches and 32 yards across 6 games. He's cuttable in all redraft leagues. Vegas will now be without Renfrow and TE Darren Waller for at least the next 4 weeks, which should push even more value to RB Josh Jacobs and WR Davante Adams. WR Mack Hollins and TE Foster Moreau should also get target boosts. Keelan Cole figures to take over as the #3 WR but isn't worth adding to fantasy rosters.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs drew 17 of the team's 19 carries in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville but gained a just-OK 67 yards (3.9 per rush). He added 3 catches for 20 yards (6.7 per reception) on 3 targets. RBs Brandon Bolden and Zamir White got 1 carry apiece. RB Ameer Abdullah drew 3 targets, catching 1 for 8 yards.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs ran for just 43 yards on 10 carries in Sunday's shutout loss at New Orleans. Jacobs added 4 targets but caught only 2 for 11 yards on a dreadful offensive day for Las Vegas. QB Derek Carr threw for only 101 yards, with no TDs and 1 INT before giving way to Jarrett Stidham in garbage time. Jacobs also gave way late in the game to RB Ameer Abdullah, who finished with 5 targets (all in the 2nd half). We're not worried about Jacobs off this outing.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (foot) was upgraded to full participation in Friday’s practice and isn’t listed on the final Week 8 injury report. He was limited on Wednesday and Thursday but should be ready for more workhorse usage vs. the Saints on Sunday.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (foot) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We haven't heard any concern about his status for this weekend's game vs. the Saints, but check back Friday afternoon for another update on his status.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs (foot) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He seemed to make it out of last week's win just fine, so this is likely more of a rest day after he handled another 23 touches vs. Houston. Jacobs should be fine for Sunday's game vs. the Saints, but we'll update his status again tomorrow.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs ran for 143 yards and 3 TDs on 20 carries in Sunday's win over the Texans. He added 3 catches for 12 yards on 4 targets. This marked 3 straight games of 20+ attempts and more than 140 rushing yards for Jacobs. He should be in your starting lineups until he proves otherwise.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs ran for 154 yards and a TD on 21 carries in Monday night's narrow loss to the Chiefs. He added a team-high 5 catches for 39 yards. That landed Jacobs 3rd among RBs in PPR scoring for the week. He now sits 4th at the position for the year. His 26 total opportunities (carries + targets) at K.C. constituted 83.9% of the Raiders' total RB opportunities for the game. Jacobs ranks 6th among RBs in team opportunity share for the season.

Raiders RB Josh Jacobs went off in Week 4, torching the Broncos for 144 yards and 2 scores on 28 attempts. With 5 catches (6 targets), Jacobs actually set a career-high with 34 opportunities. Vegas never trailed after the 1st quarter, so his passing-game usage is encouraging. He’s actually caught 5 balls in back to back games. On the ground, Jacobs continued to make the most of his opportunities behind a surprisingly-effective O-line. He’s now up to 4.8 YPC through 70 carries. The contract-year back will look to keep rolling Monday night at Kansas City.
