Las Vegas Raiders DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers logged a full practice on Saturday as expected, and he carries no injury designation heading into Monday night's game with the Atlanta Falcons. He's been managing an ankle issue with plenty of rest throughout the weekdays, so this ailment is of minimal concern. He'll face an Atlanta defense that's been shredded multiple times through the air over the past few weeks, and it's a great matchup for Meyers to see plenty of targets. He should be started in all PPR leagues regardless of who ends up playing at QB. While his ceiling is lower if backup quarterback Desmond Ridder ends up getting the nod, he's a great and highly underrated WR that consistently gets separation and wins on his routes, and that's what matters for fantasy football.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers is set to continue his historic season when his team takes on the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. It's the first round of the fantasy playoffs for most leagues, and there's no one better to put in your TE spot than the rookie sensation. He's logged a ridiculous stat line of 87 catches on 118 targets for 933 yards and four touchdowns, and every quarterback who's played for the Raiders this year knows he's a great player to get the ball to. Even if QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) isn't able to go, backup Desmond Ridder should still sling the ball Bowers' way early and often. The Falcons defense hasn't been very good against the pass, either, so it's a solid matchup.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell (knee) is questionable to play against the Atlanta Falcons for Monday Night Football in Week 15. O'Connell did not participate in practice Thursday, Friday, or Saturday and has an official questionable tag heading into Monday night's contest. He has 899 yards passing and four passing touchdowns with three interceptions this season. Desmond Ridder is listed as the backup quarterback for the Raiders should O'Connell be sidelined on Monday. Ridder has 239 passing yards and a passing touchdown for Las Vegas this season.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) practiced in full for the second straight day this week on Friday. Mattison has missed the last three games due to an ankle injury, but the fact that he's been practicing in full this week suggests he'll be ready to return in Week 15 when the Raiders take on the Atlanta Falcons in primetime on Monday night. Zamir White (quadriceps) is out for the year after being placed on Injured Reserve. Ameer Abdullah has seen a much bigger workload in recent weeks without Mattison and White, but Sincere McCormick is now the team's starting RB moving forward. The 26-year-old Mattison should still be involved in the backfield, but he won't have enough volume in an offense that will likely be run by quarterback Desmond Ridder this week to warrant flex attention in the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Friday for the second straight day this week. Meyers was also listed as questionable for the Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but was active and played 91 percent of the offensive snaps while catching seven of his 10 targets for 67 yards. It's possible the 28-year-old draws another questionable tag on Saturday for Monday night's game against the Atlanta Falcons, but as of right now, we'd be surprised if Meyers didn't suit up. He's been much more attractive in fantasy lineups ever since the Raiders traded Davante Adams to the New York Jets. Meyers has averaged 11.7 half-PPR points in his last four games, catching 27 of 42 targets for 313 yards. The matchup against the Falcons secondary is an excellent one, but he'll have more bust potential as a WR3/flex with Desmond Ridder likely starting at QB on Monday.
