Wilkerson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log. Wilkerson was elevated to the active roster for the second week in a row, failing to record any stats in the team's 20-15 loss to the Rams. The wide receiver played 18 of the team's 79 offensive snaps, which was the fourth-highest total amongst players at his position. With Davante Adams now with the Jets and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) still banged up, it's possible that Wilkerson is active again in Week 8 versus Kansas City.

Wilkerson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log. Wilkerson was elevated to the active roster for the second week in a row, failing to record any stats in the team's 20-15 loss to the Rams. The wide receiver played 18 of the team's 79 offensive snaps, which was the fourth-highest total amongst players at his position. With Davante Adams now with the Jets and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) still banged up, it's possible that Wilkerson is active again in Week 8 versus Kansas City.
Wilkerson was elevated from the Raiders' practice squad to the active roster Saturday. 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.
Wilkerson reverted to Las Vegas' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. With Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) both out Week 6 against Pittsburgh, Wilkerson was brought up from the practice squad and played on 27 of the Raiders' 63 offensive snaps. He caught just two passes (on three targets) for 18 yards but accounted for one of the team's two touchdowns with a nine-yard score. The elevation was Wilkerson's first of the campaign, and he could be called upon again Week 7 against the Rams if Adams and/or Meyers misses another contest.
Wilkerson caught two of three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers. Wilkerson, who was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's contest, found the end zone in his first action of the season on a nine-yard pass from quarterback Aidan O'Connell, which came on a fourth and two with less than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. If at least one of Jakobi Meyers (ankle) or Davante Adams (hamstring) remains out for the Raiders' Week 7 matchup against the Rams, Wilkerson could once again see himself elevated from the practice squad.
Wilkerson was elevated from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers. Wilkerson made a pair of appearances with the Raiders in 2023 but has yet to be active on game day in 2024. With Jakobi Meyers (ankle) officially listed as doubtful, Wilkerson has a chance to change that in Week 6.
The Raiders signed Wilkerson to the practice squad Wednesday. Wilkerson was on the Raiders' practice squad in 2023 and played 40 offensive snaps across two regular-season appearances. He finished the preseason with seven catches (on 13 targets) for 69 yards and one touchdown across three games, but it wasn't enough for him to crack Las Vegas' 53-man roster. Wilkerson could be promoted to the active roster during the regular season should any of the Raiders' wide receivers miss time.
The Raiders released Wilkerson on Tuesday, per the team's official site. Wilkerson signed a reserve/future contract with Las Vegas in January and was vying for a spot on the 53-man roster but won't make the cut despite tying for the team lead with seven catches during the preseason slate, on which he totaled 69 yards and one touchdown. In four NFL seasons, the 27-year-old has just four catches, all of which came in 2021 with the Patriots.
