I was a big Josh Jacobs fan before he was even drafted. Once we were on the clock I was yelling "GET JOSH JACOBS!" And the moment I heard Rodger Goodell say "Josh" I was already yelling "Hell Yes!". This kid will be special trust me.
He was hard to read at first for me, especially with so many players wanting to perceive a persona now a days. I am happy he is with us, he seems like a genuine great guy who is focused on his work. Wish nothing but the best for him. Just win baby!
God bless. I've been through some of these same struggles. I was homeless for over a year after the military and faced being in the cold sleeping behind buildings in my car but working odd jobs during the day. I prayed and God always gives us what we need if we keep faith and works in motion. Keep working hard Josh. No matter where that path leads including other teams in the future and other endevors. Truly inspirational to hear about and see stories like yours. Thank you and Go Raidernation.
P Gaven amen my friend. God bless❤️ Romans 5:8 King James Version (KJV) 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Jacobs is my favorite player right now on the Raiders I'm pull for him not bc he's Raider cause i love to see young black men that goes threw the struggle come out and make it BIG RESPECT
That’s the type of person Gruden and Mayock specifically targeted in the draft. Hard working, humble, intelligent, grateful for what they have accomplished.
@@lazor_us i have too disagree with you because this year he will be and he is in the top 5 best rookies in nfl already this year he has the talent plus more
As a Bama fan,and i Raider fan, i was overjoyed when we got him in the draft. He was underutilized at Bama,and i knew he would be a great fit in Oakland. Wishing him nothing but the best of success.
Experts have him as a LT/Le’veon Bell type. Let hope he continues to make strides and give the Silver and Black the generational back they have been needing for a minute!
Couldn't happened to a better dude. Really happy to see anyone excel coming out of a difficult environment, and overlooked early on. Just getting warmed up too...giddy up. Welcome to tha Silver & Black...bet. RN4L
J. Jacob's your story is being written every day. You are a leader and an inspiration to the youth. God is blessing you for a reason. Never settle and always stay humble and you will always appreciate and be appreciated
Not gonna lie, he might be the first Raiders Jersey I buy. Born and raised a Raider fan in Seattle, been watching since Gannon and Gruden... I love Jacobs. Great pickup. *EDIT 2nd Jersey I buy... first was Khalil 😪
In Seattle as well as a Raider Fan, I got Two Mack jersey's. I only wear my Bo and Stabler Jerseys right now. I am waiting to see what Carr does this year before I by his.
I am a first-year Raider fan! How can you not love this guy? He has variables that you just can’t teach like drive, heart, humbleness, and football IQ. How lucky are we? And he’s just a rookie still.
@ when we had jack del rio and we drafted mack and cooper i didnt see much in them bonestly. They were good dont get me wrong but something about that team just made me not want to get any jerseys around the del rio era. Now that i see gruden is coaching i understand what he is going for and i know Jacobs will be around for a while. Jacobs has that "IT"factor he can block, catch, run. Hes just what we need. I didnt buy ABs jersey because i had a gut feeling it wouldnt work. And what do you know i was right. Maybe i want his jersey because it reminds me of tbe Charlie Garner days but i have a good feeling about jacobs and hudson.
You can't help but love everything about this guy and his coach. The dude is humble but fiercely determined to be the best he can be, i wish him nothing but the best.
You are different Josh, keep it that way. Be the king by showing others that you are, don't need the tats for that. It actually makes you like every one else. If I'm you, create a program for kids and family that are going through what you and your family did. Stay up stay different. RN4L.
A real find if he stays healthy humble focused Most of ALL he is a perfect fit as a conerstone to the RAIDERS Revival.. Greetings from Dublin Ireland brother and sisters Raider NATION since 1981RN4L We love Josh HERE
This is some good advertising. It's interesting to watch and keeps me captivated and also makes me want one of those beds without annoying me with too much abrasive advertising
@@tonyperez5239 injury prone, upright running style made him easy to bring down, lacked elusiveness and breakaway speed (would always get caught from behind). He was middle of the pack maybe top 10 on a good day. Jacobs is already better than mcfadden at his best.
Welcome too the team I love your professionals on and off the field you are the man much respect too for growing up as a man and never giving up on your dream and that’s playing football and making your family happy even your mom
One awesome player seems like a great guy been watching him with bama since he got their Roll Tide josh Jacobs!!!hope to see him in the hall of fame one day
I already loved his story and play style at Alabama so for me no surprise what type of person he is. I'm just happy that Raiders drafted him. Josh will achieve great things for silver and black.
I love this guy! He reminds me of Marcus Allen in so many ways, how he squares his pads, how he ALWAYS finds a way to fall forward. He is versatile just like Marcus Allen too. I can see him catching 50+ balls, 500+ receiving yards, along with 1200+ yards rushing and 10+ TD's each and every season for the foreseeable future. I seriously hope he stays in Silver n Black for his entire career - unlike Marcus Allen (no more comments there). I have not been so excited about a Raider RB since Bo Jackson. #28 might be my next jersey to buy...and I only buy jerseys of Raider greats.
I hope he plays his whole carreer as a Raider.
Absolutely man
Me too
Eagles fan here, I hope this dude stays where he's at and completely revolutionizes the organization
Kaemon Stults “Dolphins fan here” ....said nobody ever except Felipe
Jay Charles what ? He said he was an eagles fan.
I honestly thought he was gonna say “beat my meat” at 6:05 😂
Lmfao! You a fool for that bro. RN4L!
Same lol
Zach Boozé on GOD lol I thought that too
Beat my... family in 2k lolol
Zach Boozé lol he probably was there was a big gap after he said “beat my”
He’s humble
That's an understatement
"I might...beat my........family in 2k"
I did NOT think he was going in that direction 😂
Centagis I heard that I was like don’t say it then he said beat my family in 2k I was like ok
Dead.
MEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAT!
😂😂 Y’all wanted him to say beat his meat so bad
LMFAO I WAS ABOUT TO SAY THAT
That was the most low key Sleep Number ad I have ever seen. 😂
Joshua Smith deadass said the same exact thing 🤣
😂
I thought the same. Especially at 6:45. Reminds me of those fake actors portrayal lol
They better pay this young man well. Great ad.. I might get me a sleep number
Noah Lehman Lmfao.. you right about that.. he’s going to be our bully along with Abram
Honestly it's a great bed
I was a big Josh Jacobs fan before he was even drafted. Once we were on the clock I was yelling "GET JOSH JACOBS!" And the moment I heard Rodger Goodell say "Josh" I was already yelling "Hell Yes!". This kid will be special trust me.
How awkward would it have been if Goodell was like “With the 24th Pick..Josh..Jacob(cough cough)son...Josh Jacobson c’mon down!
I hope he stays a RAIDER Life Long!!!
He was hard to read at first for me, especially with so many players wanting to perceive a persona now a days. I am happy he is with us, he seems like a genuine great guy who is focused on his work. Wish nothing but the best for him. Just win baby!
AllEyesOnG DotCom ,Amen, Amen he is a great young man with a lot of respect.May God keep blessing him and his family.🙏🏾🙏🏾

Josh the defintion of a professional. A Rookie like AB could learn a lot from this Veteran right here.
Welcome to your new home Jacob's my new favorite Raider!
Jacobs' is how you write it my dude.
Really my dude I hope everyone can figure out who the hell I was talking about jackass'es
Really like him but my current favorite is Waller
bill hawk @ I don’t know anything about football but after hearing Josh story I have be came a Raider fan.🏈🏈🏈
Jacobs is my favorite player right now on the Raiders I'm pull for him not bc he's Raider cause i love to see young black men that goes threw the struggle come out and make it BIG RESPECT
Word.
I like to see young white men succeed. Does that make me racist? If so why aren't you racist?
GORILLA GARDENS thanks to nick saban for giving him the opportunity to play for the best college team and mold him into a NFL caliber RB.
That’s the type of person Gruden and Mayock specifically targeted in the draft. Hard working, humble, intelligent, grateful for what they have accomplished.
JIMMY BAD AZZ , Amen & Amen.
Man I love Jacobs, I’m so glad the Raiders got him he’s a great person, and such a beast
I love me some Josh Jacobs! He’s a beast! Extremely humble and I see him having a bright future☠️
This kid will become a All pro every year
*an
It's not true not this year tho🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
@@lazor_us i have too disagree with you because this year he will be and he is in the top 5 best rookies in nfl already this year he has the talent plus more
@@lazor_us what we're you saying
@@borntobearaider7677 👆👆
My favorite Raider
Josh Jacobs kind of puts the phrase "they don't make 'em like this no more" to bed. This is proof they still do
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
He’s a great player! Amazing! Alabama loved him! So proud for him!
THATS MY RB☠️
YES SIR❗🖤
U can tell the guy is just a humble great guy love this man especially wearing that Silver n Black rookie of the year! Book it
Jacobs is legit, seems like a great humble person
I’m so glad we have a running back with a great attitude just like our qb!
As a Bama fan,and i Raider fan, i was overjoyed when we got him in the draft. He was underutilized at Bama,and i knew he would be a great fit in Oakland. Wishing him nothing but the best of success.
Same here im bama fan and raiders Im happy he on are side RN4L
The fact that i played him in high school then seen him go to bama and now here is just mind blowing
The fact that he grew up the way he did and got to where he is, is even more so
That's how I feel about Sony Michel. Played agaisnt him in my HS State Championship when I was in Florida.
An appreciative brother who is destined for greatness
Please stay a Raider for life !!!
Humble....great character...even if he doesn't stay a Raider...gotta keep watching this dude.
When he said “I might beat my .... family at 2k” when he was explaining his night schedule 😂 thought he was gon say sumn else 😂
Jay Charles that pause was sus. i feel dirty for thinking exactly what you were 😂😂
@@lemonator8813 but his wife is exhausted.
@@lemonator8813 yeah, we always seem to be behind them.
@@lemonator8813 lol.
Love this kid! RN4L!
He's gonna break for a big one soon. You can feel it! Let's goooo!!!
Rah Money would love for him to break it off against the bears..multiple times..
It would be amazeballs...Mack’s draft pick gashing the best defense in the NFL?
Seems like a really good guy. Wish him well in his career.
Hes quickly become my favorite player
Love the way he carries himself.
His family must be so proud of him...talented...humble...well
Spoken🖤🏈🤍🙏🏽
Jj deserve everything good in his life he just so humble
Josh Jacobs ain't taking nothing for granted, much luv man, much success.. RN4L
Bro you are already my hero, GOD BLESS and hope the best for you....Raiders for life!!!
I really like this kid, he carries himself in a professional manner. I pray that he stays healthy and wish him the best with the silver and black!
Experts have him as a LT/Le’veon Bell type. Let hope he continues to make strides and give the Silver and Black the generational back they have been needing for a minute!

Love this kid
Buying his jersey! What an amazing story and individual!
This man is the very epitome of Raider Greatness, we need this man till he retires.
Raiders Nation!!!

😂😂😂😂😂😂 you ill
SAME!!! I was like “oh no he ain’t gonna say it”
😂😂😂😂
ON MEEE!!!!! Me too 😂
Gotta stay healthy yo
He's a fuckin monster. RTR
J. Jacob's your story is being written every day. You are a leader and an inspiration to the youth. God is blessing you for a reason. Never settle and always stay humble and you will always appreciate and be appreciated
One of my favorite players in this year's draft
I'm not a social media guy...but really loved that expose on Jacobs. He went through a lot and has the same values I teach my kids. Go Raiders!
Not gonna lie, he might be the first Raiders Jersey I buy.
Born and raised a Raider fan in Seattle, been watching since Gannon and Gruden... I love Jacobs. Great pickup.
*EDIT 2nd Jersey I buy... first was Khalil 😪
In Seattle as well as a Raider Fan, I got Two Mack jersey's. I only wear my Bo and Stabler Jerseys right now. I am waiting to see what Carr does this year before I by his.
At least your first jersy was the mack attack. Unlike mine, Antonio Clown. Its now my oil rag for cars. Wht a waste
Bra tell me about it. I bought an amari cooper jersey 🤣🤣🤣
Got a khalil jersey he left i 😭 then threw it away.... then went and got a carr jersey.. but i think jacobs might be worth it.. go raiders
Go Raiders
I am a first-year Raider fan!
How can you not love this guy? He has variables that you just can’t teach like drive, heart, humbleness, and football IQ. How lucky are we? And he’s just a rookie still.
Gonna be a great player for years to come great pick great young man🙏👍
Josh Jacobs 🔥🔥🔥
big win today ... great job
Since week 1
I knew i wanted his jersey
But now after week 4 i NEED HIS JERSEY
@ when we had jack del rio and we drafted mack and cooper i didnt see much in them bonestly. They were good dont get me wrong but something about that team just made me not want to get any jerseys around the del rio era.
Now that i see gruden is coaching i understand what he is going for and i know Jacobs will be around for a while. Jacobs has that "IT"factor he can block, catch, run. Hes just what we need.
I didnt buy ABs jersey because i had a gut feeling it wouldnt work.
And what do you know i was right. Maybe i want his jersey because it reminds me of tbe Charlie Garner days but i have a good feeling about jacobs and hudson.
You can't help but love everything about this guy and his coach. The dude is humble but fiercely determined to be the best he can be, i wish him nothing but the best.
Very humble

A real find if he stays healthy humble focused
Most of ALL he is a perfect fit as a conerstone to the RAIDERS Revival..
Greetings from Dublin Ireland brother and sisters Raider NATION since 1981RN4L
We love Josh HERE
Humble kid wish BEST of LUCK
This young man is very likable. He is a grounded and humble person. I am pulling for him big time this season. Just Win Baby!
Probably the most humble player in the game today!
Polar opposite of antonio clown
This is some good advertising. It's interesting to watch and keeps me captivated and also makes me want one of those beds without annoying me with too much abrasive advertising
God bless Joshman, you've done it real tough to get to where you are today. A very humble guy IMO. Goooooo Raiders
love this kid. hes a stud and seems to be a good human being off the field, cause on the field hes an animal
i love this kid he is humble and down to earth. reminds me of curtis martin
Love this kid. JWB
Very inspirational. Great story. God bless him and his family. Greetings and respect to all from Durango Mexico
I really love this kid. He’s extremely humble and so competitive.
Raider Nation baby !!! What a gentle humble young man. That's nice to see. Good job mom 😊
I love this kid!! So humble!!
Go Raiders!!
Humble, smart, hard working, whats there not to like about him plus hes dedicated and he's a Raider baby👌
If he gets 1000yrds, buying his Jersey
He'll get 1000 total yards easy.
McFadden got a 1000 years twice with the raiders. You get his Jersey. Let him win a playoff game. Or be nfl leading rusher.
@@tonyperez5239 injury prone, upright running style made him easy to bring down, lacked elusiveness and breakaway speed (would always get caught from behind). He was middle of the pack maybe top 10 on a good day. Jacobs is already better than mcfadden at his best.
He’s on pace for 1,228
Tony Perez shut up fat Tony
What a great human. More people need b like Josh
Happy for the young bruh! I understand what he went through, he got it out of mud didn't have anything handed to him.
Welcome too the team I love your professionals on and off the field you are the man much respect too for growing up as a man and never giving up on your dream and that’s playing football and making your family happy even your mom
He is very humble great person great player keep it up

Welcome to the Raider Nation Homie from the dirt to richies salute 💯
Forealsssss I hope he stays forever 🖤
Built by bama! Literally the only player if I could have back for one more year I’d take him in a heartbeat!
Mr Sqeez Najee back for his last year before the league, y’all straight!
One awesome player seems like a great guy been watching him with bama since he got their Roll Tide josh Jacobs!!!hope to see him in the hall of fame one day
hell yeah that was some good insight into his character and inspiring as well. I feel like proud to have him rep Raider football. Buying his Jersey
God bless this kid may you prosper more jacobs
Beast we love him hope wish him the best career
I already loved his story and play style at Alabama so for me no surprise what type of person he is. I'm just happy that Raiders drafted him. Josh will achieve great things for silver and black.
Alabama fan here, Jacobs is a great back and his attitude is exceptional. Reminds me of Amari cooper ( another great athlete from Bama )
What a humble guy with a great attitude to the game
Your Roll Tide family is happy for you and your family. Stay blessed and healthy
I love this guy! He reminds me of Marcus Allen in so many ways, how he squares his pads, how he ALWAYS finds a way to fall forward. He is versatile just like Marcus Allen too.

The man's been killing it - showing some Marcus-like moves, Looks like the best Raiders halfback in years.
Former McLain High School star Josh Jacobs. Congratulations, dude! Raiders fan from Oklahoma.
Homeboy rocking them Cortez's. A California boy already
So hyped when we drafted him. So far he has not disappointed. Very happy for the young man.
Glad he’s with us. I hope he finishes his career with us.
