    Is Jakobi Meyers Playing in Week 15?

    Jakobi Meyers has been nursing an ankle injury for a couple of weeks now. He was limited at the team’s first two practices but practiced in full on Saturday. He has no injury designation heading into Monday night’s game.

    We’ll continue to monitor the Raiders’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.

    Should You Start or Sit Jakobi Meyers in Week 15?

    This Raiders offense has been about as concentrated as any in the NFL. That doesn’t lock in production, but it gives the featured options a chance, and Meyers is a prime example of that.

    Meyers has six top-30 PPR finishes this season, an impressive accomplishment all things considered. With Aidan O’Connell under center this season, Meyers has posted a 29.4% on-field target (2.6 yards per route). That’s a role I can justify playing against a Falcons defense that creates pressure at the second lowest rate, thus allowing Vegas’ WR1 time to create separation.

    His upside is limited as it is in an offense that rarely frequents the red zone, and any change under center only increases the risk. If O’Connell guts this out, Meyers is a low-end Flex, but if not, I’d rather take a wait-and-see approach for an offense that could be one of the three worst in the league.
