Played through calf strain and logged 39 touches in Week 12
Raiders RB Josh Jacobs is not expected to practice much, if at all this week because of his calf strain, per sources. He’ll get around-the-clock treatment in hopes of playing Sunday against the Chargers. (NFL Network – Tom Pelissero)
Nerdy Football Analysis: Jacobs initially suffered the injury during practice late last week and was listed as questionable, but that didn’t keep Josh McDaniels from loading him up with 33 carries or Derek Carr from throwing it to him six more times in Week 12. The fact that Las Vegas is already certain it may hold him out of practice all week suggests he should be considered questionable at best for Week 13 against a soft Chargers’ run defense. Jacobs has overall RB1 upside for that matchup if he can play, while rookie Zamir White would be in the RB1 conversation if Jacobs sits.
