(news comment 9.17) Josh Jacobs out, Kenyan Drake in

 Vegas running back Josh Jacobs has been ruled out of Sunday’s game at the Steelers as the Pro Bowler has missed practice all week because of toe and ankle injuries.

This is a massive blow for the Raiders as they already have had troubles running the ball.

The article later goes on to give quotes from players and coaches before rapping the article up saying “He missed one game last season, when his yards-per-carry average dropped to 3.9 while he ran for 1,065 yards and 12 TDs. Last week, Jacobs said his practice workload would be reduced to keep him fresh for games.”

Again this is news for sports fans but not for the ‘normal’ public. I think the article did a good job with there lead and presenting the information in invert pyramid fashion.
