Oof. What a blow for the Raiders. After Josh Jacobs played with his injured shoulder the past seven weeks, it finally got the best of him. He is a surprise inactive today. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Jacobs will receive an MRI this week to gauge the severity of the injury to see if it will shut him down for the rest of the season.
Jacobs’ loss is obviously significant. He has been the one part of the Raiders offense that has functioned at a high level all season. But he isn’t the only significant loss. Right tackle Trent Brown is also not playing in today’s game. He suffered a pectoral injury this week and was ruled out on Friday.
