Las Vegas Raiders to be without Josh Jacobs, Johnathan Abram

HENDERSON, Nev. -- Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs, the NFL's fifth-leading rusher with 782 yards, has been ruled out of Sunday's game at the winless New York Jets after suffering a right ankle injury last week, coach Jon Gruden said Friday.

Safety Johnathan Abram, who has a knee injury, also will stay home.

Gruden said Monday that Jacobs told him he would be ready to play against the Jets.

"I was optimistic that they would both play in New York, or New Jersey, but I was wrong," Gruden said.
