Running back Josh Jacobs could be a different story, though.
While Adams has three seasons left on his current contract, Jacobs is an impending free agent.
Telesco said he doesn’t foresee using the franchise tag on Jacobs or any other free agent. However, Telesco underscored that even though he’s in his first year with the organization, he wants to set a standard of keeping homegrown Raiders on the team, which Jacobs is, so an extension isn’t out of the question.
“We’re going to explore pretty hard and see if we can bring him back,” Telesco said, via ESPN’s Paul Gutierrez.
While Jacobs’ Raiders tenure remains up in the air, Telesco made it clear that Adams isn’t going anywhere.
