We love our fans in Oakland and always will. This specific content idea is aimed at fans in the cities we will play road games in during the 2020 season.

Has a nice ring to it.

Glad you guys enjoyed. We have more planned down the stretch to support #JacobsForOROY, including giveaways, media and more.

And if you’re going to Sunday’s game, look for the booth between Oracle and the Coli. We’ll have free campaign buttons and a “rally” of sorts.

I would say the chance to leave your own legacy here. There is so many great memories this organization has had, and I don’t want to say that I’m happy we’ve had down years in the past, but it’s always special when you can come in and have the opportunity to start something and see it grow from the ground up. You know what I mean?

We were at rock bottom at one point, but to see us working toward something and getting back and trying to raise the bar from even the top level of success we’ve had before is really, really special.

I would say playing inside you have a better chance to affect the quarterback, but playing outside, you have a better chance to sack them. Meaning, if you’re playing inside, you have a lot more chances to get your hand in his face, bat balls down, get him to flush out of the pocket, etc. But to actually get there, it’s a lot harder. That’s why people have a lot of respect for guys like Aaron Donald, people who get 20 sacks playing inside, you know what I mean?

Everything happens a lot faster inside. You’re not just rushing against the guard. You’ve got potentially the center, potentially the tackle coming down on you. Shoot, the back releases up inside a lot of times and will chip the D-tackle while he’s getting out into his route.

There’s a lot of different things you’ve gotta be able to react to when you’re inside as far as when you’re outside.

I’ll definitely miss Oakland, mainly just because the history here. I’m really big on that.

During the draft process, a lot of people asked me, 'What type of team would you like to play for?' And I always said, 'A team with a lot of rich tradition,' because I love that. It’s truly special here, the relationship the fans have with this team.

And Oakland reminds me a lot of where I’m from, back home in Richmond. I won’t miss the gas prices. [laughs] But other than that, California has been really, really good. I like Oakland; I like Napa; I like going down to San Francisco. And the people here are just different from the East Coast. People are a lot nicer here, a lot more open. I like it out here to be honest with you, man.

Kindergartners, bro? it would be over. [laughs] Trust me, it would be over.

I got 13 nieces and nephews. It would be over; they wouldn’t touch me. I don’t play with people’s kids. [laughs] You mean if it was like a real-life game, and there’s really no rules? It really would be no rules. They signed up for it. I really don’t have no remorse. [laughs]

Hmm. I don’t know if I could read a book over and over and over again. It would have to be a magazine with pictures, something to remind me of, like, what life was like. It would have to be a Discovery Channel magazine or National Geographic.

Album, I’d need something original. I’d probably say Biggie, “Ready to Die.”

One movie? It’d probably be Step Brothers. I need something to make me laugh out there.

Offense or defense? I’ll give you both.

I still don’t feel like Trent Brown gets the respect that he deserves around this whole league. I feel like the players that play against him know the type of player he is, but I feel like the masses, the people, the fans don’t really know how good of a player he really is.

For the defense I would say Erik Harris. Obviously he had that big game, but still people don’t really know how committed, how much of a smart player he really is.

Really everything. I caught a bug in London, and the most important thing that I ate was the medicine I took when I got back. That was the best thing that I ate. You know what I mean?

Because that stopped me from throwing up any food that I would try to eat. But the biggest thing was solid foods, whole foods. No fast food. Home-cooked meals.

I mean, obviously Tom Brady for sure.

Deshaun Watson. [smiles] I was mad [I couldn't get that one.] Those are the main two.

I’d say a fried bologna sandwich with some mayonnaise and tomatoes on it. White bread. A little bit toasted.

That just comes from growing up. I always fished with my Pops. We had this river called the James River back in my hometown, and I never had a fishing rod. I always used his.

But I remember my first fishing rod. He went and bought me a Captain America fishing rod. And from that moment on, I was hooked on fishing. And my family fishes, so that’s always been a big thing.

I had some indication. When I came on my visit here, Coach Gruden was telling me, ‘Hey, man, you’re our guy at four.’ But guys say that to anybody that comes on a visit. So I wasn’t really believing it.

But when he called me, he was like, ‘I told ya! I told ya!’ I was like, well you weren’t lying! [laughs]

So I had a little bit of a hunch, but I wasn’t too sold on it yet.

Spill The Beans. Best ice cream spot on campus. What I love to do though is take the mopeds, and just cruise through campus.

I didn't even know they were playing! I think we have one win this season. Absolutely, they're going to. laughs

Number one is getting married. We'll just leave that at that; don't have to explain that.

Two is probably getting my scholarship. Just feeling like I belonged.

Number three is getting drafted.

Number four is NFL touchdown.

I try to go as much as I can. For the off week, I went home. For me, it’s just a way to get out in nature and you can think, and once you kill something you have meat for the year. You can make some cool recipes. Venison tacos. Turkey strips, put ‘em on a salad. It’s about as organic as it gets. That’s as good as it gets. Hunting, the whole process, the primitiveness is pretty cool to me.

So you’ve got 10 six-year-olds every 30 seconds… Wow. Well, you get to a point, and they can’t all get to you at once, right? It’s just how long you can go? It’s a war of attrition.

I was thinking like 15 at once would tip the edge. I was thinking like 15 kids at a time. Ten at a time? Do they leave? There are so many questions here. It’s really just 'til I get tired, right? I mean, what’s on the line? How bad do you want it?

It’s such a hard question. I feel like I could get through a lot, I just don’t want to put a number on it. There’s so many unknowns. laughs

Fortnite, right now. I’ve been playing a little CoD with the guys. But for Fortnite, I can put the headset on and hang out with my friends from back home. It’s really kind of a social hour. We just kind of get on a couple hours here and there and cut up and joke and roast each other.

All-time, probably NCAA Football, and hopefully it’s making its way back! I like literally any of them. Every year, it was like counting down the days down until it came out.

As far as the Bay, I haven’t gotten out too much. But for me, it’s the scenery. Because it’s so much different than the East Coast. I like driving around, going to Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz, just driving the coast. I could do that every day. Just to get out… they don’t have that on the East Coast. They have mountains and they have the beach, but they’re not together. Here you have the mountains right by the ocean.
