Alexander Mattison - Page 4 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Deemed limited in practice Tuesday Mattison (ankle) was estimated as a limited participant in Tuesday's practice walkthrough, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

Impact Though the Raiders held a walkthrough Tuesday, that Mattison was deemed limited is an improvement over his trio of DNPs last week. The running back was unable to play against Denver on Sunday, as was No. 2 back Zamir White (quadricep), leaving ball-carrying duties primarily to Ameer Abdullah. White was estimated as not practicing Tuesday, and if neither he nor Mattison can return Friday against Kansas City, Abdullah figures to lead Las Vegas' rushing attack again.

Inactive Sunday Mattison (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Impact With Zamir White (quadricep) also inactive, Ameer Abdullah is next up at running back for the Raiders on Sunday, while Dylan Laube and practice-squad elevation Sincere McCormick are also in line to mix in versus Denver. The next chance for Mattison and/or White see game action will arrive this coming Friday at 3:00 p.m. ET, when the Raiders face the Chiefs on the road.

Doubtful for Sunday Mattison (ankle) will be listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

Impact Meanwhile, Zamir White (quadricep) will also be deemed doubtful for the contest, paving the way for the Raiders to likely be without both backs this weekend. If the duo is inactive versus Denver, Las Vegas would likely start Ameer Abdullah at running back, with Dylan Laube and Sincere McCormick also in the mix, per Vic Tafur of The Athletic.

Another missed practice Mattison (ankle) remained sidelined at practice Thursday.

Impact The same applies to Zamir White (quadricep), with both backs in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Broncos. Friday's final injury report will reveal the game status of the duo, but if neither are available this weekend, Ameer Abdullah and Dylan Laube would be in line for expanded roles in Week 12, with Sincere McCormick and/or Chris Collier representing potential practice squad elevations.

Missing Wednesday's practice Mattison (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The same applies to Zamir White (quad), with both players having been forced out of this past Sunday's loss to the Dolphins. The duo's status is thus worth monitoring in advance of this weekend's game against the Broncos, but for the time being the healthiest running backs on the Raiders' active roster are Ameer Abdullah and Dylan Laube, with Chris Collier and Sincere McCormick candidates to be elevated from the practice squad ahead of Week 12 action.

NOVEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Injures ankle Sunday Mattison left Sunday's game against the Dolphins with an ankle injury.

Impact Meanwhile, fellow RB Zamir White (quad) was also forced out of the contest, leaving Ameer Abdullah to handle the team's backfield duties. Before his injury, Mattison carried five times for 19 yards and caught all three of his targets for 50 yards.

Nine carries in loss Mattison rushed nine times for 36 yards in the Raiders' 41-24 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

Impact Mattison once again led the Raiders' backfield in carries, outpacing Zamir White, who did score a rushing touchdown, by three attempts overall. Neither back was targeted in the passing game, and the non-fantasy-friendly pecking order is likely to persist through a Week 10 bye and into a Week 11 road matchup against the Dolphins on Sunday, Nov. 17.

Impact Mattison started the last four games and took at least 57 percent of snaps and 17 touches in each contest, averaging 16.5 carries for 44.5 yards (2.7 YPC) and 3.8 catches for 28.8 yards (7.2 YPT) while scoring one touchdown. The volume has made him a reasonable fantasy starter, at least in PPR leagues, but his struggles on the ground seemingly open the door for White to take on a significant role again -- and possibly as soon as this Sunday at Cincinnati.

Horrific efficiency against KC Mattison rushed the ball 14 times for 15 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chiefs. He added five receptions on five targets for 29 yards.

Impact Mattison was the only Raider to record more than two carries, but he didn't do anything to earn the continued opportunity. His longest rush went for just five yards and four of his 14 carries went for zero or negative yards. Mattison did manage to salvage his day as a receiver, as he tied for second on the team with five targets. Zamir White saw only two carries and totaled -1 yards, though it wouldn't be surprising to see the Raiders mix their running back usage in Week 9 against the Bengals.

Keeps lead role in White's return Mattison rushed 23 times for 92 yards and caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 20-15 loss to the Rams.

Impact The Raiders got Zamir White (groin) back for the first time since Week 4, but Mattison got 23 carries to White's three. Having usurped White as the top option in Vegas' backfield, Mattison should have a high touch floor moving forward on a Raiders team that wants to play smash mouth football due to the team's lack of talent in the passing game. Mattison has logged at least 17 touches in three consecutive games heading into a Week 8 home game against the Chiefs.

Tallies touchdown as lead back Mattison rushed the ball 14 times for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers. He added five receptions on five targets for 32 yards.

Impact Mattison served as the lead back for the second consecutive week in the absence of Zamir White (groin). He accounted for the majority of his production on the Raiders' first offensive possession, during which Mattison recorded 25 yards on the ground and 19 on the ground while also recording his touchdown. If White is sidelined again for a Week 7 matchup against the Rams, Mattison should have the ongoing chance to be productive thanks to projected volume.

Set to lead backfield Mattison is in line to lead the Raiders backfield Sunday against the Steelers with Zamir White (groin) inactive.

Impact With White on the pine Week 5 at Denver, Mattison started and earned a 57 percent snap share en route to 15 carries for 38 yards and two catches (on three targets) for 23 yards. Meanwhile, Ameer Abdullah handled 44 percent of plays, with most of his 51 yards from scrimmage coming on a 40-yard carry, though he did have a three-yard touchdown run. A similar breakdown of reps between Mattison and Abdullah likely will come to pass Sunday.
