The Las Vegas Raiders decided not to pick up the fifth-year option of running back Josh Jacobs, and he made them pay. In his rookie contract’s final year, he led the NFL in rushing yards with 1,653 and was voted a first-team All-Pro. The former Crimson Tide stand-out is now in line to get paid this offseason, but he hopes to remain in Vegas.
Aside from all of the other accolades, Jacobs attended the Pro Bowl in Las Vegas this past weekend and it’s safe to say he’s not a fan of the new Pro Bowl games saying, “This (expletive) is stupid.”
Many players share his opinion that a flag football game isn’t the solution, but to come out and be so blunt about it is hilarious.
