GM Telesco doesnt expect the Raiders to place the franchise tag on Jacobs again

A year after the Raiders on running back Josh Jacobs, new Las Vegas general manager Tom Telesco said Tuesday that likely wouldn't happen again.As a GM, you never want to take anything Julio Urias Jersey off the table, but I dont anticipate using that tag this year, in Indianapolis.Telesco said he would like to bring back Jacobs, who in 2022 led the NFL in rushing with 1,653 yards and averaged 4.9 yards per carry. He rushed for 805 yards this past season and averaged 3.5 per carry, mi sing the final month with a quadriceps injury.Jacobs sat out training camp last year Ross Stripling Jersey after the sides didn't agree to a long-term contract. He wound up worth up to $12 million.ADVERTISEMENT Coach Antonio Pierce has publicly supported re-signing the workhorse back. Jacobs has said he wants to return especially with AP being the coach.But whether the sides can agree on a deal remains to be seen given how few lucrative multiyear contracts are offered to running backs after their fifth year.I do want to establish a philosophy with the Raiders that Chris Taylor Jersey we like to re-sign our own, Telesco said. "Doesnt bother me that I didnt draft him. Hes a Raider and he was drafted by the Raiders and hes a high-level player. So, yeah, were going to explore pretty hard to see if we can bring him back here and kind of go from there.Second-year back Zamir White stepped into the starting role and rushed for 397 yards over the last four games on a 4.7-yard average.From what I see, he's a very good player, Telesco said. He has size, he has speed, he has some nice vision, had some production late in the year. But the way we're going to play and the way a Los Angeles Dodgers Jersey lot of teams play is you need more than one back and I don't really see a lead back-type thing. You've got to have more than one."Telesco also was asked about wide receiver Davante Adams' future. Adams has surpa sed 1,000 yards receiving in five of the past six seasons, but there Maury Wills Jersey has been speculation the Raiders could use him as trade bait to move up in the draft and get one of the top quarterbacks.He's a Raider, Telesco said of Adams.___AP NFL:
