Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> running back Josh Jacobs is crushing the competition this season. Yes, his team is 3-7 on the season, but that's not on Jacobs. The fourth-year pro out of Alabama had another great game in Week 11 vs. the Denver Broncos with 24 carries, 109 rushing yards, three catches, and 51 receiving yards. Those 160 yards represent the fourth times he's gone for over 150 this season, more than any other back in the league.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jacobs is on pace for the best season of his career, and the best thing about this is that he'll be a free agent this offseason. The Raiders could have locked him in for next year by picking up his fifth-year option for around $8 million. Now, they'll either have to give Jacobs a long-term deal for much more than that or franchise him for somewhere around $10 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Assuming the Raiders don't do that \u2014 because, after this disastrous season, paying a running back big money doesn't make sense \u2014 where could Jacobs end up in 2023? Here are the four best Josh Jacobs free-agent destinations next season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The big caveat with this first destination is that it only makes sense if Tom Brady comes back for one more season. If not, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be in full rebuild mode, and this will not be a good Josh Jacobs free-agent destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If Brady does come back, though, Jacobs could be just what the offense needs. They already have Chris Godwin and\u00a0Mike Evans<\/a>\u00a0on the outside, but the running game has been bad this season. Leonard Fournette and Rachaad White have combined for about 200 yards less on the ground than Jacobs alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Plus, next season, the Bucs' offensive line situation will be better, and Jacobs can be the all-around back that an aging Brady needs this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n RELATED: 4 Best Landing Spots for the Packers QB Aaron Rodgers in 2023<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n4.
