Las Vegas Raiders DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White (groin) was limited in Thursday's practice session for the second straight day this week. White has been one of the bigger fantasy disappointments in 2024 for a Raiders offense that has tanked, especially after trading away All-Pro wideout Davante Adams this week. The 25-year-old White has missed the last two games due to his groin injury, which has allowed Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah to take over the backfield. White should get his chances when he returns, but he might have already lost lead-back duties to Abdullah. In four games played, White is averaging a career-low 3.1 yards per carry and has not found the end zone. Even if White returns to action in Week 7 against the Los Angeles Rams, we wouldn't recommend him for starting fantasy lineups.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) sat out of practice for a second straight day this week on Thursday. Head coach Antonio Pierce said on Wednesday that he was hopeful that Meyers would play this Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams despite missing Wednesday's practice, but two straight missed practices isn't a good sign. The 27-year-old will need to at least be limited in practice on Friday to have a shot to suit up in Week 7. It's especially concerning after Meyers missed the Week 6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Raiders are a mess right now after trading All-Pro wideout Davante Adams to the Jets this week. If Meyers misses a second straight game, look for Tre Tucker, DJ Turner and rookie tight end Brock Bowers to lead the team in aerial targets.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White (groin) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice as the team begins preparation for a Week 7 contest against the Los Angeles Rams. White has missed the team's last two games and has seen his fantasy stock plummet considerably after six weeks of the season. The 25-year-old entered the year as the expected lead back after Josh Jacobs departed in free agency, but it has been Alexander Mattison, and not White, who has become the Raiders' primary ball-carrier. Even if White is able to suit up this Sunday against LA, he might play second fiddle to Mattison in the backfield. The former fourth-rounder is averaging a career-low 3.1 yards per carry for 152 yards and no TDs on 49 carries through four games. White should remain on fantasy benches if he makes his return in Week 7.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. However, head coach Antonio Pierce said that he's hopeful Meyers will be able to suit up against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 7. It's interesting to see Pierce's optimism given that Meyers missed his first practice of the week, but that certainly doesn't preclude him from progressing and playing on Sunday. There's suddenly extra attention on Meyers, who is the Raiders' No. 1 wide receiver now that Davante Adams has been traded to the New York Jets. Meyers should be evaluated as a mid-to-low WR3/FLEX in most fantasy leagues.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) has officially been named inactive for the team's Week 6 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Davante Adams (hamstring) has also been ruled out so the team will roll with a very thin receiver group. Tre Tucker and DJ Turner will likely be the top two receivers while Brock Bowers is going to get all the snaps he can handle. This also comes at the time of Aidan O'Connell's first start of the year.
