Jacobs carried the ball 21 times for 78 yards and a touchdown and caught six of eight targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
For the first time since Week 7 and the fourth time this season, Jacobs topped 100 scrimmage yards with at least one TD, but it wasn't enough to get the Raiders into the win column. The fourth-year back is well on his way to the best numbers of his career heading into a Week 11 clash with a Broncos defense he torched for 144 rushing yards and two touchdowns in their first meeting this year.

Jacobs rushed the ball 17 times for 67 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jaguars. He added three receptions on three targets for 20 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs got off to a very slow start to the game as the Raiders' offense flowed through Davante Adams. Jacobs managed a few chunk plays in the second half of the game to salvage his performance, highlighted by gains of 15 and 13 yards -- the latter of which came on a reception. Though Jacobs has failed to find the end zone or top 100 total yards in each of his last two games, he still commands almost all of the work out of the Las Vegas backfield and should remain a reliable producer as a result.

Jacobs rushed 10 times for 43 yards and caught two of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Saints.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs had a long rush of 16 yards help his efficiency, but it wasn't a very productive day overall for the tailback, as his team was shut out. Coming off three straight monster performances, Jacobs' stock came back to earth Sunday in a difficult matchup. On the bright side, Week 9's contest versus the Jaguars appears favorable for a Jacobs bounceback.

Jacobs (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in New Orleans after practicing fully Friday, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs' reps were capped at practices Wednesday and Thursday, but the running back may have just been getting some additional maintenance after handling 20-plus carries for the third game in a row in the Raiders' Week 7 win over the Texans. He parlayed his 20 carries (and three receptions) into 155 yards from scrimmage and a season-high three touchdowns in the win, but open running room could be harder to find in New Orleans. The Saints have allowed the second-most points per game (28.6) this season, but their run defense has surrendered more than 40 fewer yards per game (123.1) than the Texans' league-worst total (164.7).

Jacobs (foot) remained limited at practice Thursday, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs also was limited Wednesday, but so far there's been nothing to suggest that he's in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Saints. A return to a full practice Friday would support that notion and likely result in the running back heading into the weekend minus a Week 8 injury designation.

Jacobs (foot) was limited at practice Wednesday, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs is one of eight players listed as limited by Raiders on Wednesday's injury report, but so far there's been nothing to suggest that his status for Sunday's game against the Saints is in danger. The team's top running back is coming off a big game in Week 7 in which he ran 20 times for 143 yards and three TDs in a 38-20 win over the Texans, while adding three catches on four targets for 12 yards.

Jacobs carried the ball 20 times for 143 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Texans. He added three catches on four targets for 12 yards.
EDGE Analysis
All three scores came in the second half as Las Vegas broke open when had been a 10-10 tie at halftime. Jacobs has topped 100 rushing yards in three straight games, becoming the first Raider to do so since 1997, and Sunday's 143 yards was actually his lowest output during that incredible stretch -- he's amassed a stunning 441 rushing yards, 82 receiving yards and six rushing TDs in those three contests. Jacobs will take all that momentum into a Week 8 clash with a New Orleans defense that just had trouble containing Arizona's Eno Benjamin on Thursday night.

Jacobs rushed the ball 21 times for 154 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 30-29 loss to the Chiefs. He also recorded five receptions on five targets for 39 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs posted a career-high in rushing yards for the second consecutive week, highlighted by lengthy gains of 37 and 21 yards. He also found the end zone for the third time this season, all of which have come in his last two games. While that production was encouraging enough, Jacobs tallied five receptions for the third consecutive matchup to showcase his ability as both a pass catcher and rusher. He's the clear workhorse back in Las Vegas and is showing the ability to deliver high-end production with his opportunity.

Jacobs carried the ball 28 times for 144 yards and two touchdowns while adding five receptions on six targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 32-23 win over the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis
After failing to reach 70 rushing yards in any of the first three games of the season, Jacobs erupted for a career high in rushing yards and scrimmage yards while scoring his first two TDs of the year on a 10-yard run early in the second quarter and a seven-yard plunge that iced the game late in the fourth. He's also seen a surge in volume as a pass-catcher over the last two contests, hauling in 10 of his 11 targets. The fourth-year running back will take plenty of momentum into an AFC West clash with Kansas City in Week 5.

Jacobs carried the ball 13 times for 66 yards in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Titans. He added five receptions for 31 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Jacobs appeared doubtful for this contest after he didn't make the original trip with the team. However, he was active for the game and dominated opportunities out of the Las Vegas backfield. He was efficient with his opportunity on the ground and also tied for second on the team with five receptions. The only thing missing was a trip to the end zone, though he got no work near the goal line. His production hasn't been spectacular to begin the season, but Jacobs has topped 70 total yards in each of his three games.
