Summary

Josh Jacobs was able to showcase his three-down ability last year for the Raiders - but it was only after backfield mate Kenyan Drake went down with an injury. He now enters what is likely his final season with the Raiders. Earlier this offseason it was announced that the Raiders wouldn't be picking up Jacobs' fifth-year option, which means he'll be a free agent in 2023. Jacobs is not going to be the bellcow that he was last season either. Not only is Drake healthy, but the Raiders selected RB Zamir White (Georgia) in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL draft. Reports from OTAs and minicamp indicate White has been arguably the best of the three backs, which means we could see a three-headed RBBC this season with White taking over as the lead back next year (when both Jacobs and Drake are gone).

RB Drake Still Recovering

Vic Tafur, from The Athletic, reports Las Vegas Raiders RB Kenyan Drake (ankle) was not cleared for mandatory minicamp in June.

Las Vegas to use RBBC?

The Las Vegas Raiders might go with a running-back-by-committee approach in 2022, The Athletic's Vic Tafur speculates. 'Sounds to me like you have to use [Zamir White] this season,' Tafur wrote. '[Josh] Jacobs and [Kenyan] Drake will likely both be gone next year after playing out their contracts, and there is probably a decent chance [general manager Dave] Ziegler and [head coach Josh] McDaniels already think White is better than them. A committee approach seems to make sense, keeping everybody fresh and ideally available.'

Jacobs missing minicamp practices

Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that while RB Josh Jacobs has missed Raiders minicamp programs, he has been participating in the offseason program. That "sends up a signal that something is up physically" according to Bonsignore, but also "there is no sense that it is anything serious". Bonsignore adds that his condition might not be known until training camp.
