The Las Vegas Raiders will face the Miami Dolphins in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding WR Jakobi Meyers.
Is Jakobi Meyers Playing in Week 11?
Jakobi Meyers (hamstring) fully practiced all week. This is a new injury for Meyers, who battled an ankle issue before the Raiders’ Week 10 bye. However, given his full participation this week, Meyers will play in Week 11.
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 11?
As we grow older, we learn that not all calories are created equal. Some foods offer more value to your body than others, even if one specific category reads the same. Five catches in five straight games in most spots would result in that player garnering top-25 interest in my rankings. But the empty-calorie nature of Jakobi Meyers’ targets has me treating him like any health nut would Pop-Tarts.
Avoid.
I think Meyers is a good player and would love to see him given the ability to thrive elsewhere, but betting on this Raiders offense is something I’m getting less comfortable doing weekly as the importance of every fantasy matchup rises. Despite the volume, Meyers has reached triple digits in air yards just once this season and has three games this season without a red-zone target (two of which saw him not even run a route inside the opponents’ 20-yard line).
Woof.
If you’re in a bind and need a reasonable floor in a PPR setting, I could see squinting your way to getting him into your lineup. But without much of a ceiling, I’m looking elsewhere in most situations.
