Darren Waller Likely To Rebound Versus Jets

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller disappointed last week against a bad Falcons Defense but will likely bounce back this week against the Jets.

Henry Ruggs III Looks To Break Loose Against Jets

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III had three catches on five targets for 56 yards last week and sees a favorable matchup this week against the Jets.

Devontae Booker Set To Start Against Jets

Las Vegas Raiders running back Devontae Booker is set to start Sunday against the Jets due to Josh Jacobs (ankle) being out. Jacobs is a workhorse back, so Booker's touches have been limited throughout the season. He has just one game where he has seen double-digit carries, and he took advantage of that opportunity. While […]

Derek Carr Looks For Bounce-Back Week Against Jets

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr struggled mightily last week against the Falcons but will have a good chance to bounce back against the 0-11 Jets. The Jets have allowed 21 touchdown passes and a passer rating of 104.8. Carr has played well against the Jets in his career, averaging 210 yards and over two […]

Josh Jacobs Ruled Out For Sunday

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said that running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) and safety Johnathan Abram (knee) have been ruled out for Week 13 against the Jets.

Josh Jacobs, Nelson Agholor Miss Another Practice

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle), wide receiver Nelson Agholor (ankle) and safety Johnathan Abram (knee) missed a second straight day of practice on Thursday.

Josh Jacobs, Nelson Agholor Miss Practice

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle), wide receiver Nelson Agholor (ankle), safety Johnathan Abram (knee) and cornerback Damon Arnette (concussion, neck) did not practice on Wednesday. Jacobs' status will be one to watch this week. He'll be a no-doubt, must-start fantasy back if he's active against the winless Jets, but his status shouldn't […]

Trent Brown Returns To Practice

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said that offensive tackle Trent Brown returned to practice on Wednesday after missing extended time after testing positive for COVID-19. Cornerback Lamarcus Joyner and defensive end Clelin Ferrell also practiced Wednesday. Brown has played in just two games this season for the Raiders and hasn't been on the […]

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) had his day cut short in the Week 12 blowout loss to the Falcons after just 10 touches and a fumble after he suffered an ankle sprain, according to a source.

The Raiders defense had a rough day against the Falcons, allowing 36 offensive points.

Darren Waller Disappoints Against Falcons

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller had a disappointing day as did the rest of the team, catching just four passes on seven targets for 27 yards. His seven targets was second-most on the team, but it did not amount to a performance that fantasy owners would like to see out of one of […]

Nelson Agholor Catches Five Balls

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Nelson Agholor had a decent performance in a 43-6 loss against the Falcons. He hauled in five passes on six targets for 54 yards.

Henry Ruggs III Sees Five Targets

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III was featured a bit more in the offense in Week 12, catching three passes on five targets for 56 yards in a loss to the Falcons. This broke a streak of five straight games where Ruggs failed to go for over 40 receiving yards. It was just […]

Hunter Renfrow Paces Team In Receiving Yards

Josh Jacobs Set To Play On Sunday

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (hip) was logged on the team's injury report Thursday following a limited participation in practice.

Takk McKinley Sticking With Raiders Defense

The Las Vegas Raiders placed former Falcons first-rounder Takk McKinley (groin) on Injured Reserve on Friday, so they will hang onto him instead of waiving him after he failed physicals with the Bengals and 49ers previously. It's been another long and disappointing season for the pass-rusher from UCLA, as he was cut by Atlanta after […]

Raiders Defense Unreliable Against Falcons

The Raiders defense has allowed 30 points or more in six of 10 games this season and take on a streaky Falcons offense this week. The Falcons offense has scored at least 25 points in six of their 10 games, so this game has the makings of a high-scoring contest. The Raiders defense has just […]

Darren Waller Looks For Dominant Performance Against Atlanta

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller is a must-start TE1 option this week against the Falcons Defense. The Falcons defenses are one of the worst teams in the league against the pass and rank 23rd against opposing tight ends. Waller is the Raiders' No. 1 offensive weapon and is coming off a great performance […]

Hunter Renfrow A Fringe Flex Option In Week 12

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow has three straight games with just two catches, and he only played in 34 percent of the team's snaps last week against the Chiefs. Renfrow has gone for less than 40 yards in half of his games this season and has gone for 60 yards or more only […]

Henry Ruggs III Off Fantasy Radar

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Henry Ruggs III has mostly moved himself off the fantasy radar for the time being. He has just eight catches for 79 yards over his last five games, so there is nothing to suggest he is worthy of starting in fantasy lineups. He is still listed as the No. […]

Nelson Agholor Looking For Another Good Performance

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Nelson Agholor had a season-high six catches last week against the Chiefs. He had 88 receiving yards and a touchdown. However, Agholor's consistency is a major issue from week to week. Prior to last week, Agholor had just three total catches in the three previous games. He has a great […]

Derek Carr A Low-End QB1 In Week 12

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr may be in the QB1 conversation this week against a bad Falcons Defense that ranks 29th against opposing quarterbacks. The Falcons defense has allowed the second-most passing yards, tied for the second-most passing touchdowns, and a passer rating of 105.9, which is the worst in the NFL. They have […]

Raiders Defense Adds Takk McKinley Off Waivers

The Las Vegas Raiders made a splash earlier Monday by signing Vic Beasley to their practice squad, following up that announcement by claiming outside linebacker/defensive end Takk McKinley off of waivers.

Raiders Defense Signs Vic Beasley

The Las Vegas Raiders signed former Falcons and Titans outside linebacker Vic Beasley to their practice squad on Monday.

Beasley was the eighth overall pick […]
