Tuesday night, the Oakland Raiders announced the completion of signing running back, Josh Jacobs to a rookie contract. The former Alabama star signed a deal worth four-years, $11.9 million with a fifth-year team option.
The entire rookie class had already been signed up to this point, with the exception of Jacobs. With him being the last man standing, all the attention was centered on Jacobs and the Raiders coming to a mutual agreement in the immediate near future.
Some thought a holdout could develop, with training camp just two weeks away, but that speculation was put to rest on Tuesday night when Jacobs finalized his new deal.
