CelebnSports247.com reports that Las Vegas Raiders star running back Josh Jacobs seemed to question the decision in a since-deleted tweet.
Apparently, Raiders running back Josh Jacobs had second thoughts about his Tweet so he removed it, but not fast enough, it was still caught by sports media.
Ian Rapaport took to social media reporting:
The #Raiders are expected to hire #Patriots de facto GM Dave Ziegler as their new GM, per, @MikeGarafolo and @TomPelissero. He was key in New England’s fast turnaround, now turns his attention to Las Vegas. The next step is slated to be the hire of Josh McDaniels as head coach.

Owner Mark Davis picked McDaniels over interim head coach and former special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia, who coached the team’s final 12 games, going 7-5 and leading them to the playoffs.
He was widely praised by the players on the team.
On January 20th, Crosby Maxx weighed in on Raiders interim coach Rich Bisaccia:
“Rich is my pick if it was up to me. He’s a great leader and leader of men… I think he’s earned the right.” @CrosbyMaxx on Raiders interim coach Rich Bisaccia: pic.twitter.com/LWVsIgEHjA
