Oakland Raiders running back Josh Jacobs had another terrific outing in the team’s 28-10 loss to Kansas City Sunday. He gained 99 yards on only 12 carries aided by an outstanding 51-yard run.

Jalen Richard Could See Increased Workload

Oakland Raiders running back Jalen Richard didn’t see the field much in Week 1, but should find more opportunities in Sunday’s contest versus the Chiefs.

Catcher Waiver Wire Pickups For Week 24

As we enter the final weeks of the regular season we start to see more prospects getting the big league phone call as rosters expand.

Keelan Doss Inactive Monday Night

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Keelan Doss is unsurprisingly inactive for Monday night's game versus the Broncos.

There's a possibility Doss suits up in the team's Week 2 […]

Keelan Doss Heading Back To Raiders

The Oakland Raiders have brought back wide receiver Keelan Doss after upping their contract offer in the wake of the Antonio Brown release.

The hometown […]

J.J. Nelson Steps Into WR2 Role

Oakland Raiders wide receiver J.J. Nelson will now step into a starting role with the recent loss of Antonio Brown.

Nelson has […]

Hunter Renfrow Destined For Higher Target Share

With Antonio Brown's high volume of targets now up for grabs, Oakland Raiders wide receiver Hunter Renfrow should see an uptick in opportunities in lieu of this recent vacancy.

Darren Waller Looks To Profit With One Less Mouth To Feed

In the wake of the Antonio Brown release, the Oakland Raiders will look to feed the ball more often to their new starting tight end, Darren Waller. His large 6-foot-6 stature, combined with his tremendous athletic ability, pegged him as a sleeper prior to this development, but now he may become a more featured option, […]

Antonio Brown Fined By Raiders, Unlikely To Play Week 1

The Oakland Raiders have fined wide receiver Antonio Brown $215,073.53 for punting a ball during a heated exchange with general manager Mike Mayock, voiding his $29.125 million guaranteed money for this season.

Time For Darren Waller To Prove It In Week 1

With plenty of preseason hype surrounding Oakland Raiders tight end Darren Waller, it's time for him to show his skills when the team opens up the regular season on Monday Night Football.

Derek Carr Equipped For Clean Slate

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will look to start his second season under head coach Jon Gruden off on the right note as the team squares off against the Broncos on Monday. The 28-year-old is coming off back-to-back disappointing seasons with a career-low 19 touchdowns in 2018. With the new array of talent surrounding him […]
