Jakob Johnson Agrees With Raiders
3 years agoFormer New England Patriots fullback Jakob Johnson agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders on Wednesday. Johnson will be reuniting with head coach Josh McDaniels, who was his offensive coordinator with the Patriots. The 27-year-old is one of the better fullbacks in the NFL and will now be blocking for running backs Josh Jacobs, Kenyan Drake and the newly signed Brandon Bolden in Vegas. There's no fantasy appeal here, though, as Johnson had 13 catches for 83 yards and one touchdown in 37 games (20 starts) for New England over his three seasons with them. His addition is mainly good news for Jacobs.
