More proof Josh Jacobs is happy that he was not critically injured … because TMZ Sport got photos of the Las Vegas Raiders star’s 6-digit Acura NSX – and it was destroyed.
As we reported earlier, the 22-year-old running rugby was involved in a single accident on January 4 at around 04:42 near the airport in Vegas.
Jacobs was transported to hospital with a crunchy bladder on his forehead. As nasty as the injury was … it’s now clear it could have been a lot worse.
The photos – taken at a Sin City trailer the day of the crash – show the 2019 Acura NSX purple with HEAVY damage to the front of the vehicle.
The NSX license plate “IAM28” (Josh’s Raiders #) sells for about $ 160,000 … and goes 0-60 in less than 3 seconds and has a top speed of about 190 MPH.
Officials initially suspected Jacobs would have been under the influence alcohol, but blood alcohol tests indicated that his BAC “is below the legal limit and therefore DUI charges are not being filed against him,” according to the DA.
Legally, Jacobs did not escape completely unscathed … he was hit with 1 misconduct charge of “Duty of driver to reduce speed under certain circumstances.”
Most importantly, the 2019 first-round draft pick from Alabama, who raced 1,065 yards and 12 tackles last season, was not seriously injured.
As super as the supercar is … it can be replaced.
