Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro running back Josh Jacobs will miss Thursday night’s matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers with a quad injury, according to league sources. Zamir White is slated to start in his place.

The Raiders tailback left last week’s loss against the Vikings after suffering the injury and missed practice all week.
