The Las Vegas Raiders are in a sticky situation with Josh Jacobs regarding contract negotiations, which may worsen.
As we all know, Josh Jacobs has missed all of the Raiders offseason activities. But you can't say he sat out because he isn't currently under contract. When the Raiders franchise tagged him, he didn't sign, meaning he wasn't under contract for those activities. He didn't end up losing $98 thousand in fines.
But just because he didn't sign it doesn't mean he doesn't want to be on the Raiders. He and the team are still talking things out, trying to find a middle ground. It is taking way too long.
As other deals are getting done around the league, not necessarily deals with running backs, you can only assume that Jacobs is getting frustrated. On Tuesday, he tweeted, and we can only guess that he is showing just that. However, this tweet was a cryptic message towards the franchise.
Jacobs wrote "bad business."
The only other way to interpret that is that he isn't happy with the way the talks are going, and he maybe thinks they are doing bad business. There isn't much context there, so that's how we have to interpret it.
It's certainly a cryptic message that has caught everyone's attention.
