Jacobs told reporters Monday that he hopes to re-sign with the Raiders as a free agent this offseason after rushing for a league-high 1,653 yards in the regular season, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jacobs was a workhorse in his fourth NFL season, producing the league-high 1,653 rushing yards on 340 carries and scoring 12 touchdowns. The Raiders didn't pick up the 2019 first-round draft pick's fifth-year option prior to the season, resulting in Jacobs becoming a free agent. After Jacobs responded with his best campaign as a pro, there's likely to be mutual interest between him and the Raiders, though Jacobs should have plenty of other suitors in free agency as well.

Jacobs rushed the ball 17 times for 45 yards in Saturday's 31-13 loss to the Chiefs. He added two receptions for five yards.

EDGE Analysis

Jacobs accounted for 17 of 18 carries by Las Vegas running backs, but he struggled to find room to run. His longest gain of the day went for 12 yards, though he still managed only 2.6 yards per carry. Jacobs ends the season with 1,653 rushing yards, which will likely be good enough to lead the league. He also chipped in 53 receptions for 400 yards while finding the end zone a total of 12 times. Jacobs is set to become a free agent and will be one of the top available running backs.

Jacobs (hip/oblique/personal) is listed as active for Saturday's game against the Chiefs.

EDGE Analysis

According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, the running back didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday while spending time in Tulsa with his father, who had emergency heart surgery, per sources. However, the NFL's leading rusher will be available versus Kansas City. Assuming no setbacks with the hip and oblique issues he's managed of late, Jacobs should lead the Raiders' Week 18 backfield. If he ends up limited at all, Zamir White, Brandon Bolden and Ameer Abdullah would be candidates to log added snaps in the 6-10 team's season finale.

Jacobs (hip/oblique/personal) is in line to play Saturday against the Chiefs, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

After not practicing Wednesday or Thursday while spending time in Tulsa with his father, who had emergency heart surgery per sources, the Raiders listed the running back (who has been managing hip and oblique injuries) as questionable for the contest, but per Pelissero, Jacobs is slated to be available versus Kansas City. Official confirmation of Jacobs' Week 18 status will arrive upon the release of the team's inactives ahead of Saturday's 4:30 ET kickoff.

Jacobs (hip/oblique/personal) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chiefs after not practicing Wednesday or Thursday, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The team's top running back -- who is dealing with hip and oblique issues -- is the only player the Raiders list as questionable for the contest, while linebacker Darien Butler (concussion) has been ruled out. Jacobs' status thus is worth monitoring closely as Saturday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff approaches, but if he's out or limited this weekend, some combo of Brandon Bolden, Ameer Abdullah and Zamir White would be in line to log added Week 18 backfield snaps for Las Vegas.

Jacobs (hip) wasn't on the field for the open portion of Thursday's practice, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jacobs has proven on prior occasions this season that he doesn't require much practice time, if any, to prepare for a given game, but he may still be at risk of missing his first game of the season Saturday against the Chiefs while he battles a nagging hip injury. Not only does Jacobs have the disadvantage of playing on a short week, but the 6-10 Raiders don't have anything at stake Saturday beyond perhaps denying a division rival the No. 1 overall seed in the AFC playoffs. The Raiders will wait until after Thursday's practice concludes before likely handing Jacobs a designation for the Week 18 contest, if he isn't ruled out two days in advance of the game. Even if Jacobs ends up being cleared ahead of Saturday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff, he won't necessarily be a safe bet to handle his usual high-volume role out of the Las Vegas backfield.

Jacobs (hip/oblique) didn't participate in the Wednesday's walk-through practice, due to what Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site referred to as a personal day.

EDGE Analysis

Jacobs was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, so the running back will presumably need to practice fully Thursday in order to avoid carrying an injury designation into Saturday's game against the Chiefs. In the Raiders' 37-34 overtime loss to the 49ers in Week 17, Jacobs carried 17 times for 69 yards and a touchdown and caught four of five targets for 26 yards.

Jacobs (hip/oblique) was listed as limited on Tuesday's practice estimate, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jacobs missed some time this past Sunday against the 49ers due to a hip injury, which, along with an oblique issue, would have capped his reps Tuesday if the Raiders had held a session. The fourth-year pro will have two more opportunities to get back to full before the team potentially gives him a designation ahead of Saturday's scheduled 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff.

Jacobs carried the ball 17 times for 69 yards and a touchdown and caught four of five targets for 26 receiving yards in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to San Francisco.

EDGE Analysis

Jacobs bounced back from his worst rushing performance of the season in Week 16 (2.9 YPC) with a solid effort and his 12th rushing touchdown. The bruising back had to leave the game in the first half with a hip injury, but he was able to return and finish the game without any limitations. Assuming good health, Jacobs will finish his impressive 2022 campaign against the Chiefs, whom he torched for 154 rushing yards and a score back in Week 5.

Jacobs tallied 15 carries for 44 yards and caught his only target for six yards during Saturday's 13-10 loss at Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

In a game in which Jacobs surpassed 1,500 yards on the ground for the season on his second carry, he ultimately finished with his second-lowest rushing total of the campaign (previously, he had 43 yards Week 8 in New Orleans). He nearly salvaged his day overall with a 36-yard catch-and-run late in the third quarter, but the play was called back by a Foster Moreau face mask penalty. Jacobs also didn't score a touchdown for the second consecutive contest and eighth time in 15 appearances. He may have a tough time bouncing back Week 17 against the 49ers' top-ranked run defense.
