After leading the NFL in rushing yards in 2022, running back Josh Jacobs would have been one of the top free agents on the market this offseason, but the Las Vegas Raiders won't let him walk so easily.
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Las Vegas has used its franchise tag on Jacobs on Monday in hopes of retaining him. Jacobs will make $10.1 million if he plays under the tag in 2023.
The 25-year-old was set to become a free agent after the team declined to pick up the fifth-year option on his rookie deal last offseason.
