Running back Josh Jacobs was among a few NFL players that were franchise tagged by their organization on Monday. The deadline for the tag is 4 p.m. on March 7.
However, with all of these tags, there is the possibility that the Raiders and Jacobs find common ground on a long-term extension. If not, they will only have him for one season before he has the opportunity at free agency again prior to the 2024 season.
However, it was a bit complicated because it would’ve been an $8 million salary for the Alabama product last season.Despite rushing for more than 1,000 yards in his first two seasons, Jacobs had 872 yards in his 15 games of 2021. The Raiders were content letting Jacobs try to earn himself a new contract with a solid fourth year this past season, and he did just that with 1,653 yards, a career-high, with 12 touchdowns in 17 games. He averaged almost five yards per carry last season.

San Francisco 49ers Finally, the Washington Commanders tagged defensive tackle Daron Payne, which is the biggest price at $18.937 million for next season. Payne had a career-high in sacks with 11.5 in 2022, which ranked third among his position.
