HENDERSON, Nev. -- What's next for Josh Jacobs? How the Las Vegas Raiders will use the running back now that he has returned to the team after sitting out the entirety of the offseason program, training camp and the exhibition season depends upon the shape he’s in.
On one hand, Jacobs has not taken a hit since Jan. 7, when he rushed for 45 yards on 17 carries in the Raiders' season-ending loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
On the other, is there enough practice time available to get him ready for the season opener in less than two weeks at the Denver Broncos on Sept.
