HENDERSON, Nev. — Josh Jacobs, the NFL's reigning first-team All-Pro running back, said Wednesday he isn't carrying any grudges after sitting out all of the Las Vegas Raiders' offseason program and training camp in a contract dispute. «I mean, s---, we here,» he said after practice on a conference call with reporters on site at the team facility. «We made it happen, so it ain't no hard feelings now.
It's a clean slate with me. It was never… no hate on each side. I understood it, but at the same time I understood my value, too.
So it was just about meeting in the middle.» Jacobs, who led the NFL in rushing yards (1,653), yards from scrimmage (2,053) and touches (393) last season, did not sign his $10.091 million franchise tag by the July 17 deadline.
He agreed to an adjusted one-year deal worth up to $12 million with per-game bonuses on Saturday and reported to the team for the first time since locker clean-out day on Jan.
