Besides the upcoming NFL Draft, one of the biggest remaining storylines surrounding the Las Vegas Raiders is what they’ll do when it comes to running back Josh Jacobs’ contract.
It’s a saga that has been going on since about this time last year when general manager Dave Ziegler and head coach Josh McDaniels opted to decline the fifth-year option on Jacobs’ rookie deal. He famously went on to win the rushing title so the front office slapped the franchise tag on him at the beginning of March with the idea being that the tag will buy them more time to reach a long-term deal.
