INJURIES
Alexander Mattison - 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 smashmouth 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.

Brock Bowers - Ten catches in Week 7 loss Bowers caught 10 of 14 targets for 93 yards in Sunday's 20-15 loss to the Rams.
Impact Bowers continues to lead all NFL tight ends in receiving yards, with 477 through seven games, and he's the clear No. 1 target in the Raiders' passing game following Tuesday's trade of Davante Adams to the Jets. Despite finding success regardless of whether Vegas deploys Aidan O'Connell -- who exited in the first half Sunday due to a thumb injury -- or Gardner Minshew under center, the rookie first-round pick has been held back by the lack of talent around him, as Bowers has just one touchdown, and his first end-zone target of the season came in the fourth quarter against the Rams. Bowers has a juicy Week 8 matchup coming up against a Kansas City defense that has allowed the most yards in the league to tight ends.

Gardner Minshew II - Struggles after O'Connell injury Minshew completed 15 of 34 passes for 154 yards, no touchdowns and three interceptions after replacing Aidan O'Connell (thumb) in the first half of Sunday's 20-15 loss to the Rams....
Impact Minshew struggled in relief, failing to make a convincing case to replace O'Connell as the starter moving forward on merit. O'Connell is believed to have sustained a broken thumb, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, and if further testing Monday confirms that diagnosis, the Raiders will have little choice but to turn back to Minshew in Week 8 against the stout Kansas City secondary. Minshew has a 4:8 TD:INT after Sunday's subpar performance against the Rams, which included an interception to end Vegas' last-gasp comeback effort late in the fourth quarter.

Rams force 4 turnovers and hold off Raiders 20-15 after QB Aidan O'Connell gets injured

Kam Curl returned a fumble 33 yards for a touchdown and Kyren Williams rushed for 76 yards and two more scores in the Los Angeles Rams’ 20-15 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders

Harrison Bryant - Dealing with elbow injury Bryant is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Rams due to an elbow injury.
Impact Bryant suffered the injury during the second half of Sunday's game, and he was taken to the locker room after being checked out by trainers on the sideline. If his day is done, he'll finish with two catches on as many targets for 19 yards. John Samuel Shenker and Justin Shorter will see more backup tight end snaps behind starter Brock Bowers for as long as Bryant is sidelined.

Aidan O'Connell - May have broken thumb Based on preliminary tests, O'Connell is believed to have sustained a broken thumb during Sunday's game against the Rams, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Per the report, O'Connell will undergo further evaluation Monday to determine the extent of his thumb injury. If he ends up missing time beyond Sunday, Gardner Minshew would be in line to reclaim the Raiders' starting QB job.

Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell's start vs Rams ends with thumb injury in 1st quarter

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell hurt his right thumb in the first quarter of a 20-15 loss at the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday

Dylan Laube - Healthy scratch for Week 7 Laube (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Impact Laube has played in the Raiders' last three games, but he lost a fumble on his first NFL rushing attempt in Week 6 against the Steelers. His next chance at suiting up will be Week 8 against the Chiefs on Oct. 27. The Raiders will go with a three-man backfield of Zamir White, Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah for Sunday's contest.
OCTOBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Zamir White - Active versus Rams White (groin) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Impact After logging back-to-back limited practices, White -- who had missed the Raiders' last two contests -- upgraded to full participation Friday before being listed as questionable heading into the weekend. With his active status confirmed, White is poised to reclaim his role in a Las Vegas backfield that also includes Alexander Mattison (who started while White was out) as well as change-of-pace option Ameer Abdullah. In that context, White -- who has recorded 49 carries for 152 yards and caught five of his seven targets for 16 yards in four games thus far -- represents a lineup option for those in deeper formats or who are otherwise in need of Week 7 RB help.
OCTOBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jakobi Meyers - Inactive Sunday Meyers (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Impact Meyers, who didn't practice this past week, headed into the weekend listed as doubtful. Now that he's been made inactive for the second straight game, Tre Tucker and DJ Turner are slated to lead the Raiders' Week 7 wideout corps, with Alex Bachman, Kristian Wilkerson and Tyreik McAllister also on hand. Meyers' next chance to see game action will arrive next Sunday against the Chiefs.

How to Watch Rams vs. Raiders: Time, TV Channel and Live Stream – 2024 Week 7
Kristian Wilkerson - Elevated for Week 7 Wilkerson was elevated from the Raiders' practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Impact It'll be the second-straight week that Wilkerson has been elevated from the practice squad. It comes in the wake of Davante Adams being traded to the Jets on Tuesday and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) being listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Rams. Wilkerson caught two passes (on three targets) for 18 yards and a touchdown during the Raiders' Week 6 loss to the Steelers.
OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Justin Shorter - Elevated for Week 7 The Raiders elevated Shorter from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Impact Shorter signed with the Raiders' practice squad in late August after failing to make the Bills' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He missed all of 2023 due to a hamstring injury, but he could make his NFL regular-season debut Sunday against the Rams, though it would likely be in a special-teams role as he's listed as the fourth tight end on the Raiders' depth chart behind Brock Bowers, Harrison Bryant and John Samuel Shenker.
OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Bachman - Signed to active roster The Raiders signed Bachman from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Impact With Bachman already elevated from the practice squad three times this season, the Raiders opted to sign the 28-year-old wide receiver to the active roster. He could see a fair amount of work in the passing game against the Rams on Sunday after Davante Adams was traded to the Jets and with Jakobi Meyers (ankle) listed as doubtful. If Meyers doesn't play, Bachman would serve as the No. 4 wide receiver behind Tre Tucker, DJ Turner and Tyreik McAllister. Bachman caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in the Raiders' Week 6 loss to the Steelers.

Kana'i Mauga - Won't suit up vs. Rams Mauga (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
Impact Mauga has not been able to practice all week due to a knee injury, and he will not play Week 7. His next chance at suiting up will be against the Chiefs on Oct. 27. Mauga has served solely on special teams this year and has logged one tackle across five regular-season games.
OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dylan Parham - Won't play vs. Rams Parham (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
Impact Parham suffered a foot injury in Week 6 against the Steelers, and it has been severe enough for him to miss all three practices this week. The 2022 third-round pick will work towards being available for Week 8 against the Chiefs. Jordan Meredith filled in at right guard following Parham's exit in Week 6, while the former appears to be the top candidate to start at right guard Sunday. However, head coach Antonio Pierce also mentioned Delmar Glaze and Jackson Powers-Johnson as other options to start at right guard.
OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Jack Jones - Good to go for Week 7 Jones (illness) was a full participant in practice Friday and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Rams, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site...
Impact An illness kept Jones off the practice field Wednesday, but he was able to ramp up his activity over the following two days and he'll be good to go for Sunday's contest. The 2022 fourth-round pick has logged 23 tackles (17 solo) and five pass break ups through the first six games of the regular season.
