What It Means:

Jacobs was one of the best backs in the league during the 2022 season, leading the league in rushing while cresting 2,000 yards from scrimmage with the help of his strong performance in the passing game as well. The star back is one of the few players remaining at this juncture who has yet to sign his franchise tender and has hinted at sitting out the Raiders' training camp until he receives a better contract from his team. Hopefully the Raiders will compensate him in accordance with his strong performance, setting him up for success again in 2023.

Jacobs is projected to score 250.1 fantasy points in the upcoming season, just a hair behind the 277.3 fantasy points he amassed in last year's fantasy performance. He is the RB4 in numberFire's fantasy projections for this year.
