Jakobi Meyers's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday and doesn't carry an injury designation in his Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Meyers continues to be one of the most underrated wideouts in football, likely because of his poor quarterback situation. He caught six passes on seven targets for 52 yards and a touchdown against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8. He'll face a softer Bengals defense that isn't quite as lockdown against receivers. He had solid production before garbage time against the Chiefs, making his game more impressive. He's an easy WR3/FLEX starter with WR2 upside in PPR fantasy leagues this week.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White (quad) and wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) were both listed as limited participants for the team's first practice of the week. White logged just two snaps in the team's 27-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8, and the quad ailment could be the reason why. It's the second injury that's hampered his playing time this month after he suffered a groin injury that held him out of Weeks 5 and 6. Meyers, on the other hand, returned in Week 8 from an ankle injury that kept him out of Weeks 6 and 7, and this may be just a day of rest for the veteran. The 27-year-old played 81% of snaps in the loss to the Chiefs, catching 6-of-7 targets for 52 yards and a touchdown. He's worth monitoring ahead of the Raiders' Week 9 road tilt against the Cincinnati Bengals, while White will likely continue backing up backfield mate Alexander Mattison if he plays.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers looked healthy against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8, his first game back from a two-week absence due to an ankle injury. He was targeted seven times by his quarterback, Gardner Minshew II, and hauled in six of those passes for 52 yards and the game's only non-garbage-time touchdown. He played reasonably well in the WR1 role left vacant by the departure of Davante Adams. He's the clear lead receiver for the team moving forward, though he faces substantial target competition from tight end Brock Bowers. He's a solid WR3/FLEX option with WR2 upside, depending on how the offense fares overall, ahead of a Week 9 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (abdomen) is officially active for Week 8 against the Kansas City Chiefs. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. This will be Meyers' first game of the season without Davante Adams on the roster, but he did play two games when Adams was inactive earlier this year. In those two games, Meyers caught 11 passes for 121 yards and zero touchdowns. He should see significant volume as the Raiders' No. 1 receiver this week, but he's nothing more than a low-end WR3/FLEX versus a strong Chiefs defense.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is expected to suit up for Sunday's divisional clash with the Kansas City Chiefs. Myers has been burdened by an ankle issue, keeping him off the field for the Raiders' previous two contests. The 27-year-old hasn't had a terrible season, amassing 25 catches (36 targets) for 273 yards and a touchdown. Of course, the Raiders offense is hard to trust. However, assuming Meyers officially receives the green light, he warrants flex consideration. His anticipated return could mean fewer targets for Brock Bowers, who had 19 catches combined in the last two games. DJ Turner and Tre Tucker may also have a tough time staying involved with Meyers back on the field.
