5 years agoOakland Raiders running back Josh Jacobs appears to have put his minor shoulder injury behind him and will be a fringe RB1 for his matchup on Thursday versus the Chargers. After recording his third multi-touchdown game of the season in Week 9, the rookie will look to pick up where he left off against a rush defense that's given up 114.1 yards per game on the season. The Raiders will once again lean on Jacobs to handle the bulk of the carries, making him a must-start in his high-volume role. This contest should be a close affair, so game script will favor the 21-year-old in getting upwards of 20 carries with the hope that he can chip in with a couple of receptions.--Riley Mrack - RotoBaller
