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.
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned about Meyers considering he played through the issue last week. Meyers hauled in seven receptions for 67 yards while battling the same ankle issue during the loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Meyers sitting out on Thursday could just be the Raiders being cautious with him ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. If he plays, Meyers should be able to offer WR2 value, but the quarterback situation in Las Vegas is uncertain right now. Meyers might lose some value if Desmond Ridder ends up under center on Monday.
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers caught seven of 10 targets for 67 yards during Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He led the team in targets, tied for the most receptions, and finished one yard shy of the Raiders' receiving yards leader, Michael Mayer. It has been a successful and productive three weeks for Meyers, who is averaging 12 targets, eight receptions, and 95 yards per game during that span. Amidst all of his production, Meyers would certainly like some more involvement near the end zone. He has just two touchdowns this season, including zero over his last five games. The 28-year-old will look to continue his high-volume stretch while catching passes from Desmond Ridder next Sunday versus the Atlanta Falcons.
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is officially active for Week 14 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He had been listed as questionable after logging a limited practice on Friday. Meyers has been heavily involved over the last two weeks, turning 26 targets into 16 catches for 218 yards during that span. A high-volume, high-production receiver, Meyers remains a solid low-end WR2 option for fantasy managers this week. Managers are able to start him with confidence as he continues to thrive in his No. 1 wide receiver role alongside star rookie tight end Brock Bowers.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is anticipated to play on Sunday versus the Bucs. The wideout didn't practice on Thursday because of an ankle issue. While he did practice in a limited capacity for Friday's session, it wasn't enough to avoid a questionable tag heading into Week 14. Meyers has played better than expected during the 2024-25 campaign, catching 59 passes for 676 yards and two touchdowns. Although the Raiders are officially eliminated from postseason contention, the team at least has a chance to close out the year as strongly as possible. With that in mind, Meyers has an advantageous matchup against a Tampa defense that has had trouble against opposing wideouts this season, making him a starting fantasy option.
