Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) put in a full week of practice and is off the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Jaguars. He’s just a low-end QB2 in fantasy lineups, but O’Connell’s return is good news for WR Jakobi Meyers and TE Brock Bowers.
Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Jaguars. Considering QB Desmond Ridder's performance on Monday night (59% completion rate and 5.3 yards per attempt), this is good news for TE Brock Bowers and WR Jakobi Meyers.
Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell has been diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left knee, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. It's a relatively minor injury, and O'Connell hasn't even been ruled out for next Monday night's game vs. the Falcons, per Rapoport. We'll track his status throughout this week. QB Desmond Ridder will start against Atlanta if O'Connell can't. It's a situation to steer clear of, even in superflex leagues. TE Brock Bowers and WR Jakobi Meyers' outlooks won't change much based on the QB.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Buccaneers. Meyers did not practice on Thursday but returned to a limited practice on Friday. We’re expecting him to play his usual role today, making him a strong WR2 option.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Buccaneers today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Meyers was held out of Thursday's practice but returned to a limited workout on Friday. We never sensed that he was in real danger of missing this one. Meyers is safe to keep in Week 14 fantasy lineups.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He was sidelined on Thursday but returned to a limited practice on Friday. We’re tentatively expecting Meyers to play in this one. But we’ll look for further updates on his status and get Vegas’ inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) did not practice on Thursday. He wasn't on the injury report on Wednesday. Meyers missed two games with an ankle injury earlier this season, although it's unclear if this is related. We'll see if Meyers gets back on the practice field tomorrow and how he's listed on the final injury report for this weekend's game vs. the Buccaneers.
The Raiders are preparing QB Aidan O'Connell to start Friday's game vs. the Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. O'Connell is working back from a broken thumb, returning to practice on Monday and taking the first-team reps, per Pelissero. The second-year QB threw for 227 yards, one TD, and one INT vs. Pittsburgh in his only full game this season. TE Brock Bowers caught nine of 10 targets for 71 yards in that one. (WR Jakobi Meyers did not play.) We're not considering O'Connell an upgrade or downgrade from QB Gardner Minshew or QB Desmond Ridder.
Raiders QB Gardner Minshew will miss the rest of the season after breaking his collarbone in Sunday's loss to the Broncos, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. HC Antonio Pierce said afterward that QB Aidan O'Connell might be ready to return from his broken thumb for Friday's game vs. the Chiefs. If not, Vegas would start QB Desmond Ridder, who went 5-for-10 for 64 yards with a lost fumble in relief of Minshew vs. Denver. We'll keep you updated on the situation, but this remains a spot to avoid in fantasy lineups.
The Raiders are expected to start QB Desmond Ridder vs. the Dolphins this weekend, according to The Athletic's Vic Tafur. The news is buried in an article about the general state of the Raiders -- and we haven't seen it reported anywhere else. But we'll go with it for now.
The Raiders fired OC Luke Getsy, offensive line coach James Cregg, and QBs coach Rich Scangarello, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Vegas ranks 29th in yards per game, 29th in yards per play, and 26th in points per game through Week 9. Getsy has never brought much to the table as a play caller, but personnel is a bigger issue for the Raiders.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers caught eight passes on 11 targets for 105 yards in the Raiders loss. As the de facto top WR on the team after the Davante Adams trade, Meyers is seeing the targets with the Raiders defense giving up points early.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. He missed the past two games but racked up 19 total targets in the previous two without WR Davante Adams. Meyers is a nice volume bet today in a game that figures to find the Raiders playing from behind.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Chiefs today, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. This was expected after Meyers was a full-go in Friday's practice. He missed the last two games but totaled 19 targets in his two games without WR Davante Adams this season. Meyers is a volume-based WR3 option for fantasy lineups today.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Chiefs. He went from a limited practice on Wednesday to no practice on Thursday to a full practice on Friday. That should have Meyers on track to play in this one, but we’ll look for further updates on his status. We won’t get Vegas’ inactives until a little before 3 pm ET on Sunday.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) did not practice on Thursday. That follows a limited practice on Wednesday -- and obviously does not bode well for his chances of playing vs. the Chiefs this weekend. We'll see if Meyers gets back on the field on Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. It was his first practice since the Friday before Week 6. We'll see if Meyers can make it back for Sunday's game vs. the Chiefs. When healthy, he should be at least a WR3 option for fantasy squads. He totaled 19 targets in two games without WR Davante Adams this year.
Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with his broken thumb, according to NFL Network. He'll be placed on IR but should be able to return this season. Vegas will now turn back to QB Gardner Minshew, who's completed 65.5% of his passes at 6.7 yards per attempt with four TDs and eight INTs this season. Consider it a lateral move for the Raiders offense.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Rams. The Raiders will again roll with WRs Tre Tucker, D.J. Turner, Kristian Wilkerson, and Alex Bachman. Try to avoid that group in fantasy lineups. TE Brock Bowers should be in for a ton of targets again.
