Alexander Mattison Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Raiders RB Alexander Mattison (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's injury report. It was just a walkthrough for Vegas but means that Mattison has a chance to return for Friday's game vs. the Chiefs. RB Zamir White (quad) remained out on Tuesday. We'll keep you posted on this backfield over the next few days, but it's a situation to try to avoid with the Raiders 12-point underdogs against Kansas City's top-ranked RB defense.

Raiders RBs Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quad) are inactive for today’s game vs. the Broncos. That leaves the backfield to Ameer Abdullah, Dylan Laube, and Sincere McCormick. HC Antonio Pierce said Friday that Abdullah will start, but it’s entirely unclear how touches will be divvied beyond that. Abdullah sits highest among Raiders RBs in the Week 12 Rankings, but you should try to avoid the situation in fantasy lineups.

Raiders RBs Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quad) are listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Broncos. Vegas will roll with Ameer Abdullah, Dylan Laube, and likely practice-squad callup Sincere McCormick in the backfield. We’re projecting Abdullah to lead in touches, but it’s a guess more than anything else. With the Raiders six-point underdogs with a 17.5-point implied total against a tough Denver defense, you should try to stay away from this backfield.

Raiders RBs Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quad) remained sidelined on Thursday. It's looking like we'll see a Vegas backfield of Ameer Abdullah, Dylan Laube, and likely practice squad call-up Sincere McCormick against the Broncos on Sunday. We'll look for reports on how work will be divvied, but it's a situation to try to avoid in fantasy lineups.

Raiders RBs Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quad) did not practice on Wednesday. Both guys were knocked out of the Week 11 loss to the Dolphins and are seemingly in danger of missing Sunday's game vs. the Broncos. Their absences would leave the backfield to Ameer Abdullah and Dylan Laube. The former hasn't tallied double-digit carries in a game since 2017; the latter is a sixth-round rookie who fumbled on his only touch of the season. We'll keep you updated on Mattison and White, but this is a backfield to avoid in Week 12 fantasy lineups.

Raiders RBs Zamir White (quad) and Alexander Mattison (ankle) are both questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. That leaves Ameer Abdullah as Vegas' only healthy RB. (Rookie Dylan Laube is a healthy scratch.) We'll update the situation when we know more.

The Raiders fired OC Luke Getsy, offensive line coach James Cregg, and QBs coach Rich Scangarello, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Vegas ranks 29th in yards per game, 29th in yards per play, and 26th in points per game through Week 9. Getsy has never brought much to the table as a play caller, but personnel is a bigger issue for the Raiders.
