Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs affirmed his desire to remain in Sin City long term as he enters the final year of his contract.
"I'm a firm believer in the work that you put in is going to pay out for itself, and I had to be here either way," he said, per ESPN's Paul Gutierrez. "And this is where I want to be. I didn't have no problem with it. It just gave me more of a reason to come in every day, gel with the guys and work."
The Raiders declined Jacobs' fifth-year option in his rookie deal, which paves the way for him to become a free agent in 2023.
