The Raiders are currently 2.5 point underdogs entering their Week 8 game against the Cleveland Browns. In order to pull off the upset, the team is going to need a few big performances from role players. Here are three under-the-radar names to keep an eye on during Week 8.

WR Zay Jones

With rookie receiver Bryan Edwards likely out on Sunday as he continues to rehab from an ankle injury, that means Zay Jones could continue to see 10-20 snaps on offense. He may be needed more in this contest than usual as the weather is expected to be rainy and windy on Sunday.

Of all the receivers on the roster, he has the most size and the best ability to catch passes that are off-target. Look for Jones to see some red-zone work in this game, especially on slants and fades if Derek Carr needs a big target. This may be one of the weeks in which Jones sees more action than other receivers such as Nelson Agholor and Henry Ruggs.
