Week 9 vs. New York Giants
Jakobi Meyers caught his only target last week, gaining 19 yards in a dismal performance by the Raiders’ offense as a hole. That game was the final straw for Josh McDaniels, who was fired along with the general manager and offensive coordinator. Now, a quarterback change and an interim coach will be in charge in Las Vegas for the foreseeable future.
Meyers will look to rebound this week against a Giants defense that ranks 11th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. With injuries and bye weeks, we still have Meyers ranked as a fringe-WR2 option this week, hoping he can get back to the targets we saw in previous weeks from him. Be wary.
