Josh Jacobs confirms his next team and is officially out of the market

The Las Vegas Raiders are ready to start a new era with Jimmy Garoppolo as their franchise quarterback. The unrestricted free agent signed a three-year, $72 million contract after an injury ended his tenure with the San Francisco 49ers.

That decision came after Derek Carr left to the New Orleans Saints. However, head coach Josh McDaniels is convinced Garoppolo could be the solution after they worked together with the New England Patriots.
