Las Vegas Raiders DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew II (shoulder) exited Sunday's meeting with the Denver Broncos. The veteran had 230 yards, one touchdown, and one pick in this one, so he's had a decent showing. However, he took a hard hit late in the contest and was assisted back to the locker room. There hasn't been an official injury designation released by the team. Yet, fantasy managers should at least consider him questionable to return, although it's unlikely he'll be back, considering the contest is nearing an end. In the meantime, Desmond Ridder is in to handle things under center.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) registered two limited practices before the weekend and picked up a questionable tag. He was since ruled inactive before their late-afternoon kickoff. Bryant was getting some extra snaps with fellow tight end Michael Mayer out for a while, but it looks like that will flip-fop with Mayer back on the field. Brock Bowers remains the TE1 though, so he'll see the bulk of the snaps.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White (quadriceps) has been deemed inactive, as expected, for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. His backfield mate, Alexander Mattison (ankle), was also ruled inactive. Ameer Abdullah and Dylan Laube will be the starting backfield for this matchup against a tougher defensive unit.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) has been ruled inactive for Week 12's game against the Denver Broncos. His ankle issue proved to be too much as he was already doubtful heading into Sunday. Zamir White (quadriceps) was also deemed inactive so that leaves Ameer Abdullah and Dylan Laube as the backfield duo in this contest.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Dylan Laube will get his second chance for backfield work for his team in Week 12. Injuries to both of the teams top-2 backs, Zamir White (quad) and Alexander Mattison (ankle), have left them almost certain to be held out of the contest. Laube will join lead back Ameer Abdullah to form some kind of committee. There haven't been many helpful reports on how much work he'll get, but the team would be well-served to give him some work and see if he can bring any juice. LV's offense hasn't been good this season, and the running game has been the worst in the league statistically. Such an inefficient ground attack warrants trying out new things. Laube is worth stashing in deep, highly competitive fantasy football leagues, but too risky to start for now. His only carry this season resulted in a lost fumble.
