Jakobi Meyers Questionable to Face the Chiefs on Sunday

Friday, October 17, 5:42 PM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee, toe) is officially listed as questionable to play this Sunday against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7. Meyers was unable to practice on both Wednesday and Thursday, but he was upgraded to a limited participant on Friday, giving him a chance to suit up this weekend. With tight end Brock Bowers (knee) expected to miss a third straight game, the Raiders' struggling offense will need all the help they can get against a Chiefs team that is finally looking like a juggernaut again. If Meyers doesn't get the green light to play on Sunday, Tre Tucker and rookies Dont'e Thornton and Jack Bech would likely work in starting three-wide sets. Tight end Michael Mayer should also be heavily involved in the passing attack in what should be a positive game script on Sunday. Meyers has been a major disappointment so far in 2025, especially the last two weeks with Bowers out.

Michael Pittman Jr. a Low-End WR2 in Week 7

Friday, October 17, 8:25 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. turned in a slow day at the office in a 31-27 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6, catching just two of his three targets for 20 yards as the team leaned on Josh Downs (concussion) in the passing attack. Pittman has a chance to bounce back on the road in Week 7 against the Los Angeles Chargers as Downs has been ruled out with a concussion. The Chargers have been excellent against receivers in fantasy this season as they are allowing just the 30th-most fantasy points per game to the position through six games. With four touchdowns already in six games, Pittman is safe to deploy as a low-end WR2 in fantasy in Week 7 despite the difficult matchup.
