Josh Jacobs should be preparing for his fifth season in the NFL. His first four seasons were spent with the team that drafted him back in 2019, the Las Vegas Raiders organization.
In 2022, Jacobs had a career season that featured a career-high 1,672 yards, 12 touchdowns and 97.2 yards per game. He is in his prime and is one of the best backs in the NFL.
Being one of the highest-performing players at your position typically comes with a raise in pay, but Jacobs had his fifth-year option declined and was franchise tagged. Now, he’s refusing to participate in training camp with the Raiders and there’s no end in sight.
Should the franchise look to trade him if contract talks continue to move in the wrong direction, here are five teams that should make calls to Las Vegas.
