Jacobs (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Changers after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Paul Gutierrez of ESPN, Jacobs aggravated a left calf injury that he carried into Week 12 action late in regulation time during the Raiders' 40-34 OT win over the Seahawks this past Sunday. Since then, Jacobs -- who racked up 33 carries for 229 yards and two TDs to go along with six catches for 74 yards versus Seattle -- has been limited at practice, which suggests that he has a chance to continue to play through his calf issue this weekend. With the Raiders kicking off at 4:25 ET on Sunday, ideally added context regarding Jacobs' status will will arrive prior to the early slate of Week 13 contests. If Jacobs is out or limited versus Los Angeles, however, Zamir White and Ameer Abdullah would likely be next in line for added backfield touches.

Jacobs (calf) was limited at practice Thursday, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.
EDGE Analysis
Back-to-back limited listings bode well for Jacobs' chances of being available for this weekend's game against the Chargers. However, the Raiders' top back will probably need to log a full practice Friday in order to avoid approaching Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET contest minus a Week 13 injury designation.

Jacobs (calf) was listed as limited on Wednesday's practice estimate, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paul Gutierrez of ESPN previously relayed that after Jacobs tweaked his left calf in a non-contact drill during last Friday's practice, the running back wasn't sure if he'd play Sunday against the Seahawks until about two hours before kickoff. Jacobs ended up giving it a go and racked up 33 carries for 229 yards and two touchdowns to go along with six catches for 74 yards in his team's 40-34 overtime win. However, given that Jacobs aggravated his injury late in regulation, his status is now worth monitoring closely as this weekend's game against the Chargers approaches. Per Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site, if Jacobs is out or limited versus Los Angeles, Zamir White could be the next man up in Las Vegas' Week 13 backfield.

Jacobs aggravated a calf strain late in Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Seahawks and isn't expected to practice much over the next few days, clouding his status for the Raiders' Week 13 game against the Chargers, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs initially injured his calf in practice last Friday, resulting in him being listed as questionable heading into the past weekend. Though he was at risk of sitting out against Seattle, Jacobs suited up and proceeded to deliver the best performance of his career. Even though he missed the final four-plus minutes of the fourth quarter, he returned for overtime and delivered a game-winning 86-yard touchdown run, capping off an afternoon in which he amassed 303 yards from scrimmage and two scores on 39 touches (33 carries, six receptions). The adrenaline may have been enough for Jacobs to play through the calf issue against Seattle, but he'll need to continue to show improvement while receiving around-the-clock treatment on the injury to guarantee his availability for the Raiders' Week 13 contest.

Jacobs carried the ball 33 times for 229 yards and two touchdowns while catching six of seven targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Despite being sidelined for the final four-plus minutes of the fourth quarter while being checked out for a possible calf injury, Jacobs returned to action in OT and put an exclamation mark on a career-best performance by rumbling 86 yards for the game-winning TD. As if his production on the ground wasn't enough, the running back also tied Davante Adams for the team lead in receiving yards. Jacobs has recorded five games with triple-digit rushing yards and three with multiple rushing touchdowns in the Raiders' last eight contests, and he figures to post big numbers again in Week 13 against a Chargers defense that's among the league's worst against the run.

Jacobs (calf) returned for overtime in Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Case Keefer of the Las Vegas Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs was deemed questionable to return in the fourth quarter, but he's gutting it out with the game on the line. Prior to aggravating the calf injury, Jacobs compiled nearly 200 scrimmage yards and a touchdown, and he surpassed that milestone with a 15-yard run in overtime.

Jacobs (calf) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs was injured in the fourth quarter. This injury is presumably linked to the calf injury he was nursing coming into the game. Prior to getting hurt, Jacobs seemed healthy, rushing 28 times for 120 yards and a touchdown while catching all six of his targets for 74 yards.

Jacobs (calf) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs, who practiced fully Wednesday and Thursday, was added to the Raiders' injury report Friday after being limited in practice due to a calf issue. He'll give it a go Sunday, and barring any in-game setbacks, he should continue to lead his team's backfield in Week 12, with Ameer Abdullah, Brandon Bolden and Zamir White available to handle complementary/change-of-pace snaps. Through 10 games to date, Jacobs has handled the bulk of his team's rushing duties, having logged 183 carries for 930 yards and four touchdowns to go along with 34 catches for 251 yards in that span.

Jacobs (calf), who is listed as questionable, is expected to suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Barring any pregame setbacks, Jacobs looks set to avoid the inactive list ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. Jacobs practiced fully Wednesday and Thursday, but he was then a limited participant Friday on account of the calf issue. The injury shouldn't be anything that dramatically affects Jacobs' workload this weekend.

Jacobs is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks after he was a limited participant in Friday's practice with a calf injury, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs practiced fully Wednesday and Thursday, but the running back's addition to the injury report Friday makes his status worth monitoring ahead of Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. Ideally, added context with regard to Jacobs' status will arrive before the early wave of kickoffs this weekend, but if he's sidelined or available only in a limited capacity versus Seattle, more snaps at running back will be available for some combination of Ameer Abdullah, Brandon Bolden and Zamir White.
