Meyers caught five of nine targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints. The veteran wideout found the end zone for the first time since Week 8 with a three-yard catch in the second quarter. Meyers is up to 78 receptions on the season, leaving him five shy of tying his career high, and his 904 yards is already a new personal best. He'll try to reach 1,000 yards for the first time in a Week 18 clash against the Chargers.

Meyers caught five of nine targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 25-10 win over the Saints. The veteran wideout found the end zone for the first time since Week 8 with a three-yard catch in the second quarter. Meyers is up to 78 receptions on the season, leaving him five shy of tying his career high, and his 904 yards is already a new personal best. He'll try to reach 1,000 yards for the first time in a Week 18 clash against the Chargers.
Meyers recorded two receptions on five targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 19-14 win over the Jaguars. Aidan O'Connell's return was generally positive for the Raiders' offense, but that wasn't the case for Meyers. He saw his fewest targets since Week 2 and tallied his lowest reception total of the campaign. The lone positive from the performance was that Meyers delivered explosive gains of 24 and 17 yards on his two catches. He should get more involved once again in Week 17 against the Saints.
Meyers (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars after returning to a full practice Friday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. As was the case ahead of Week 15 action, Meyers had his practice reps managed this week, but he'll be available Sunday and thus should remain a viable fantasy option given his high volume role in the Raiders offense. In 12 games overall this season, Meyers, who logged a 5-59-0 line on nine targets versus Atlanta this past Monday, has caught 71 of his 105 targets for 802 yards and two TDs.
Meyers (ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday. Meyers, who also was limited Wednesday, logged back-to-back capped sessions last week as well before practicing fully Saturday and approaching this past Monday's game against the Falcons without an injury designation. Chances are that pattern will be repeated ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Jaguars, with Friday's final injury report set to confirm that notion either way.
Meyers (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Meyers was limited at practice this past Thursday and Friday, but was deemed a full participant Saturday and approached Monday's loss to the Falcons without an injury designation. With no reported setbacks, there's a decent chance that Meyers' listed limitations Wednesday were maintenance related. Still, the wideout's status will be worth tracking ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, a contest in which the Raiders should welcome Aidan O'Connell (knee) back to the lineup after the QB was inactive in Week 15.
Meyers had five receptions (on nine targets) for 59 yards while getting sacked for a 10-yard loss on his only passing attempt in Monday's 15-9 loss to the Falcons. The Raiders tried to tap into Meyers' prior experience as a quarterback with an early trick play against Atlanta, but that plan backfired and resulted in a drive-killing sack. The versatile wideout had a solid receiving night all things considered, leading the Raiders in both targets and yards Monday. Meyers carries a high floor into a soft matchup against the Jaguars on Sunday.
Meyers (ankle) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Monday's contest against the Falcons, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Meyers' status never seemed to be in jeopardy, and after practicing fully Saturday he's set to reprise a role that has yielded 36 targets over the past three games. Whether the passing game will remain functional is another question entirely, as starter Aidan O'Connell is technically listed as questionable despite failing to practice all week due to a knee bruise. In the event O'Connell is ruled out, the Raiders would likely turn to Desmond Ridder, who has compiled 239 yards and a touchdown on 44 pass attempts scattered across three spot appearances this season.
Meyers (ankle) remained limited at practice Friday. Meyers also was limited Thursday, so he'll likely need to practice fully Saturday in order to go into Monday night's game against the Falcons without an injury designation. The wideout approached Week 14 action listed as questionable due to his ankle issue, but he was able to suit up for this past Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers while logging a 91 percent snap share and catching seven of his 10 targets for 67 yards in the contest.
Meyers (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday. Though he headed into Week 14 action listed as questionable, Meyers was active for this past Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers en route to logging a 91 percent snap share and catching seven of his 10 targets for 67 yards. With no setbacks having been reported, there's a solid chance that Meyers' listed limitations Thursday were maintenance related ahead of Monday night's game against the Falcons.
