2023 NFL Honors: Raiders RB Josh Jacobs runaway winner of FedEx Ground Player of the Year

The Award was presented at the NFL Honors Show Thursday night.

Jacobs’s 1653 yards rushing was more than 100 yards ahead of runner-up Derrick Henry. While Henry had one more TD (13) than Jacobs (12), his overall numbers were plenty to earn in the honor.

Along with his league-leading rushing numbers, Jacobs added 400 yards receiving, giving him over 2000 yards from scrimmage (2053).
