Finds end zone Sunday Abdullah rushed five times for 42 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-18 loss to the Broncos. He also caught all three of his targets for nine yards and he returned one kickoff fo...

Impact Abdullah logged a season-high 31 offensive snaps behind Alexander Mattison with fellow running back Zamir White (groin) sidelined for Sunday's tilt, and Abdullah took advantage as he translated the additional playing time into eight touches for 51 yards and a score, finding the end zone on a three-yard rush late in the fourth quarter. Earlier in the contest, Abdullah notched the Raiders' second-longest play of the game when he took a carry 40 yards to begin a drive. The 31-year-old could return to more of a reserve role offensively if the aforementioned White manages to suit up against the Steelers in Week 6.

Will play Abdullah (back) is active Sunday against the Browns.

Impact Abdullah was listed as questionable throughout the week but will ultimately take the field for the Week 4 matchup. The veteran should continue seeing snaps in the Raiders' backfield behind Zamir White and Alexander Mattison, while also chipping in on special teams.

Questionable for Week 4 Abdullah (back) is questionable for Sunday's game versus Cleveland.

Impact The 30-year-old has played 30 offensive snaps and another 48 on special teams through three weeks. The Raiders have been using all three of Zamir White, Alexander Mattison and Abdullah out of the backfield in a true three-man committee approach. If Abdullah can't play, it could open more pass-game work for Mattison, as White has mainly been limited to early downs.

Special teams role in season opener Abdullah played 14 snaps on special teams in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Chargers, returning one kickoff for 28 yards.

Impact Abdullah was not involved in the Raiders' offensive game plan during the season opener, while fellow running backs Zamir White and Alexander Mattison combined for 108 total yards and a receiving score on 24 touches. Mattison alone was targeted six times by quarterback Gardner Minshew, and Abdullah figures to cede passing down work to Mattison again Week 2 versus the Ravens.

Competing for third-down role Abdullah is competing with rookie sixth-round pick Dylan Laube for a third-down role behind starting running back Zamir White, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

Impact Abdullah has handled a key special-teams role across two seasons with the Raiders, which he figures to reprise in 2024, but he could also contribute more on offense if he's able to secure regular pass-catching snaps. White and backup Alexander Mattison figure to dominate carries for Las Vegas, but one of Abdullah or Laube could emerge as a somewhat reliable target earner this season. Last year, Abdullah secured 19of 24 targets for 131 yards in 17 regular-season games.

Just two touches Sunday Abdullah rushed once for four yards and caught his only target for 18 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Colts.

Impact Abdullah logged a season-high 30 offensive snaps with Josh Jacobs (quadriceps) sidelined for a third straight contest, but fill-in starter Zamir White earned 25 touches out of the backfield Sunday, notching 106 total yards in the process. The team figures to continue leaning on White in Week 18 against the Broncos if Jacobs remains out, capping Abdullah's projection.

Makes one grab in loss Abdullah caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Abdullah's 23-percent offensive snap share marked a season high as the Raiders trailed throughout the entirety of the second half in Miami, but the 30-year-old running back was dealt just one touch behind starter Josh Jacobs. Abdullah could see a similar level of involvement, especially on passing downs, against the Chiefs in Week 12.

Minimal involvement in loss Abdullah rushed once for seven yards and caught his only target for 12 yards in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.

Impact After failing to earn a single touch over the past two contests, Abdullah handled two touches during Monday's contest. Through eight weeks of season, the veteran running back has seen no more than two touches in a contest and has been held without a touch in three games. Barring an injury to starter Josh Jacobs, Abdullah should remain far off the fantasy radar going forward. Nonetheless, the 30-year-old will continue to operate as the Raiders' top backup option when the Raiders host the Giants in Week 9.
