Ameer Abdullah - Page 3 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Won't play Sunday Abdullah (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's season finale against the Chargers.

Impact Per Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com, head coach Antonio Pierce initially indicated that Abdullah would be listed as doubtful for the contest. However, it has been confirmed that the running back, who is coming off a strong effort in Week 17, will sit out the Raiders' final game of the 2024 season. In his absence, Alexander Mattison is in line to lead the team's Week 18 backfield, with Chris Collier also mixing in, per Vic Tafur of The Athletic and Dylan Laube potentially seeing some work in passing situations.

Doubtful for Week 18 Coach Antonio Pierce said Friday that Abdullah (foot) will be listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In the wake of a standout 20-carry, 115-yard effort this past Sunday at New Orleans that also included three catches (on four targets) for 32 yards, Abdullah has been tending to a foot injury that didn't allow him to practice this week. He thus appears in line to miss his first game of the campaign, which would allow the combination of Alexander Mattison, Chris Collier and perhaps even Dylan Laube to man the Raiders backfield Sunday.

Misses practice again Abdullah (foot) remained sidelined at practice Thursday.

Impact Abdullah is coming off a career-high 115-yard rushing effort in Week 17, but back-to-back missed practices cloud his status for Sunday's season finale against the Chargers. If Abdullah is limited or out this weekend, Alexander Mattison and Chris Collier would likely be next up for the Raiders' Week 18 carries, with Dylan Laube a candidate to mix in.

Doesn't practice Wednesday Abdullah (foot) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact Abdullah logged 20 carries for a career-high 115 yards and caught three of his four targets for 32 yards in this past Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints. However, the running back emerged from Week 17 action with a foot issue and Abdullah's status will need to be monitored ahead of this Sunday's season finale against the Chargers. If Abdullah is limited or out this weekend, added snaps would be available for Alexander Mattison, Chris Collier and Dylan Laube.

Injures foot late in Week 17 Abdullah emerged from Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints with a foot injury, Luke Straub of USA Today reports.

Impact Abdullah handled a season-high 23 touches and accounted for 147 yards and led Raiders running backs with a 62 percent snap share in the win, but he didn't take a handoff or draw a target after the first play of the fourth quarter. Though the Raiders listed Abdullah as questionable to return due to the foot injury at one point later in the quarter, he ultimately never checked back into the contest while Chris Collier served as the primary back on Las Vegas' last drive. Abdullah's status thus warrants monitoring heading into this Sunday's game against the Chargers, but given how well he fared against the Saints, the 31-year-old would likely be in store for the lead role out of the backfield if the foot issue doesn't inhibit him too much in practice this week.

Drew Lock’s heater costs Giants; Is Patriots coach Jerod Mayo on hot seat?

Tops 100 rushing yards Sunday Abdullah carried the ball 20 times for 115 yards and caught three of four targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints,

Impact It's the first time in his career that the 31-year-old running back has produced triple-digit rushing yards in a game. Abdullah saw 23 touches to Alexander Mattison's 11, but it's not clear if coach Antonio Pierce was simply riding the hot hand, or if Abdullah has moved to the top of the depth chart for the Raiders. Whoever sees the bulk of the backfield work in Week 18 will face a much stingier Chargers defense.

Three Key Plays: Ameer Abdullah makes big impact in Raiders' win over Jaguars A couple of turnovers as well as production from a veteran running back fueled the Raiders to their third win.

DECEMBER 24, 2024 • RAIDERS.COM

Totals 12 touches Abdullah rushed the ball seven times for 38 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-14 win over the Jaguars. He added five receptions on six targets for 47 yards.

Impact Abdullah benefitted from the absence of Sincere McCormick (ankle) but still saw four fewer touches than Alexander Mattison. As would be expected, the majority of Abdullah's production came as a receiver, and he finished second on the team in both receptions and yards. However, his biggest fantasy impact came on a seven-yard rushing score early in the fourth quarter. While his involvement in the offense is likely to lean heavily toward his work as a receiver, Abdullah should maintain a complementary role at minimum in Week 17 against the Saints.
