Raiders believe Josh Jacobs (quad) will play in Week 16
Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (quad) is expected to be available for Week 16's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
What It Means:
Asked about Jacobs status on Wednesday, head coach Antonio Pierce said "I think he was close to last week. That was a decision we all made for the best interest of him. If I had to be a betting man, I would think he would play this game." Jacobs' status still needs to be monitored throughout the week, but the Raiders believe that he will be active for Monday's showdown with the Chiefs. If he is, Zamir White would return to a backup role.
The Raiders are 10.0-point underdogs against the Chiefs in Week 16. Their implied team total of 15.75 points is the fourth-lowest team total on the 'Thu-Mon' slate, according to numberFire's DFS Heat Map.
