Raiders running back Josh Jacobs playing through shoulder fracture
ALAMEDA, Calif. -- While Oakland Raiders rookie running back Josh Jacobs, whose 1,061 rushing yards rank fourth in the NFL, revealed on social media he has been playing with a fractured right shoulder since Week 7 -- "I just play on it," Jacobs wrote on Snapchat -- quarterback Derek Carr commended the first-round draft pick's wherewithal.
"Josh is special," Carr said Wednesday. "If Josh wasn't able to play, I would completely understand, with what he's dealing with. But the fact that he keeps suiting up and going out there and not only running, but running with the style that he runs with, I don't think enough can be said about that guy."
