3 years agoThe Las Vegas Raiders activated running back Jalen Richard from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday. Richard missed the team's last two games after testing positive for the virus on Dec. 7. With Kenyan Drake (ankle) done for the rest of the season, Peyton Barber and Trey Ragas combined for six touches behind lead-back Josh Jacobs in the blowout loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 14. Richard has just five carries for eight yards and eight receptions for 45 yards in six games played this season, but he should have a much bigger pass-catching role in the Raiders backfield the rest of the way with Drake out. The 28-year-old is worth a flier off the waiver wire in deep PPR leagues heading into Saturday's clash against the Cleveland Browns.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
