Jon Gruden’s hopeful thinking appears to be playing off.
Josh Jacobs reportedly was on the practice field for the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday as they begin the work week to prepare to play at the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium on Monday Night Football.
On Monday, Gruden said the team was “hopeful” Jacobs could practice at some point this week. The fact that he was on the field Thursday indicates he will practice, at least on a limited basis. We will get the official practice report later Thursday.
If Jacobs can work without much pain, he has a chance to play against the Chargers who have the worst ranked run defense in the NFL.
