Impact Meredith missed Las Vegas' Week 15 matchup against the Eagles with foot/ankle injury, though it appears his absence will be limited to one contest. He should start at right guard against the Texans on Sunday.

Ian Thomas - Overcomes calf issue Thomas (calf) logged a full practice Wednesday.

Impact Thomas was sidelined for the Raiders' Week 15 game against the Eagles. After logging a full session, he should be ready to return Sunday against the Texans. While Thomas has logged around a 50 percent offensive snap rate in his last few healthy games, he has not reached 40 receiving yards in a game this season and has surpassed 20 yards only once.

Alex Bachman - Returns to full practice Bachman (thumb) practiced in full Wednesday.

Impact Bachman has missed the last two games with the thumb injury, but his return to a full session suggests he's in line to return for a Week 16 matchup against the Texans. He'll contribute primarily on special teams.

Tyler Lockett - Limited practice Wednesday Lockett (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact Lockett sustained a wrist injury in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Eagles, but Wednesday's injury report instead lists the wideout as dealing with a knee issue. In any case, Lockett has two more opportunities to practice fully before the Raiders assign injury designations ahead of this weekend's game against the Texans. Assuming he's available, Lockett's only a lineup option in deeper fantasy formats, with the Raiders having dropped eight straight games and set to face a stingy Houston defense in Week 16.

Geno Smith - Full practice Wednesday Smith (shoulder/back) practiced fully Wednesday.

Impact Adam Schefter of ESPN previously reported that coach Pete Carroll said there was "a good chance" that Smith would rejoin the lineup Sunday against the Texans, and the QB's full practice participation Wednesday sets the stage for that to occur. With Smith inactive in Week 15, Kenny Pickett struggled to get the Raiders offense going in a 31-0 loss to Eagles (the team's eighth straight defeat). In his looming return to action, Smith only merits fantasy consideration in deeper, QB-friendly formats while facing a stout Houston defense.

Geno Smith - Practicing Wednesday Smith (shoulder/back) is returning to practice Monday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Smith didn't practice at all last week, yet Raiders coach Pete Carroll said the veteran QB had "a really good chance to be back" for Week 16 against the Texans. It's arguably a matchup between the NFL's best defense and worst offense, but Smith's presence would at least be good news for fantasy managers that are relying on TE Brock Bowers or RB Ashton Jeanty.
