Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs is likely to play in Sunday's pivotal Week 14 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

The 22-year-old missed last week's game against the New York Jets with an ankle injury.

Jacobs was listed as questionable for Sunday's game after limited sessions in practice Thursday and Friday.

He was sorely missed in Sunday's 31-28 victory over the Jets. The Raiders struggled to run the ball, as backup Devontae Booker led the way with 50 rushing yards on 16 carries.

Jacobs has 782 rushing yards and nine touchdowns on the season.

The 7-5 Raiders currently sit eighth in the AFC, while the 8-4 Colts occupy the conference's final wild-card spot.
