Fantasy Football Multiverse: Josh Jacobs' Potential Discount Due to Contract Holdout

The idea of the multiverse is fascinating to me. You change one small thing in one timeline, and it breaks off and affects things down the road in profound ways. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, that has Earth-shattering, Thanos-snapping implications. In fantasy football, it’s just my fancy way of saying that a range of outcomes exists. My goal for this series is to pick a player from each team that is either polarizing or interesting in some other way.

In this edition of the multiverse, we’re going to take a look at one possible option for Josh Jacobs’ range of outcomes. We can’t get too far down this road without mentioning the current status of his contract situation. Jacobs and the Raiders failed to reach an agreement on a multi-year contract, and he was seen leaving Las Vegas. The claim is that he’s willing to sit out “at least” the preseason. We’ll go through our usual flow to analyze where we think Jacobs will land at year's end.
