Raiders RB Josh Jacobs continues to garner national praise

During his rookie season, Josh Jacobs became one of the best all-around running backs in the NFL, putting the Oakland Raiders offense on his back time and time again. Even more impressive was the fact that he did it with a fractured shoulder for half the season, but was still able to have a record-breaking first season in the NFL.

As we start to turn the page to the 2020 NFL Draft, and the offseason, we have to take a look back at just what a season it was for Jacobs. He became the first Raiders rookie running back to rush for over 1,000 yards in a season, and his 1,150 yards were the sixth-most ever in a season by a Raiders back.
