This is the second week in a row the Raiders have been without White and Mattison.

Last week against the Broncos, Abdullah and McCormick filled in admirably at the position.

Abdullah led the way in touches with 13 for 65 yards. McCormick led the team in rushing with 33 yards on five carries (6.6 yards per carry).

Joining White and Mattison on the inactive list are CB Nate Hobbs, G Cody Whitehair, WR Ramel Keyton, TE Harrison Bryant, and DT Matthew Butler.

Raiders strongest position will be at full strength for first time in 2 months vs Chiefs

No position on the Raiders was expected to be more a factor in their success this season than the tight end position. They made it a priority in the 2023 draft, a priority in 2024 free agency, and their top priority in the 2024 draft. But the trio …

No position on the Raiders was expected to be more a factor in their success this season than the tight end position. They made it a priority in the 2023 draft, a priority in 2024 free agency, and their top priority in the 2024 draft. But the trio of tight ends they acquired have barely seen the field together this season.

Friday in Kansas City they take the field together for the first time in more than two months.

Brock Bowers was the team’s pick at 13 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft and he has been on an historic pace this season for a rookie tight end. Or really for any rookie or at any position. But he’s done it without either of the two tight ends who were supposed to make the position one of the more formidable in the league.

Last year’s drafted tight end — who the Raiders traded up to get in the second round — Michael Mayer left after the team’s week three loss to the Carolina Panthers and was placed on the Non-Football Illness list.

By the time Mayer returned in week 11, following the team’s bye week, Harrison Bryant was lost to injury. Bryant had been among the team’s priority free agent acquisitions this offseason after four seasons in Cleveland.

Thursday, Bryant, was removed from the Raiders’ injury report, making him available for the game for the first time in since he went down with injury in week nine in Cincinnati. And thus having this trio of tight ends available for the first time since September 22.

No time like the present as they face the rival Chiefs and their future Hall of Fame tight end Travis Kelce.

Is Jakobi Meyers playing today? Injury updates for Raiders WR

Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers has missed the past couple weeks dealing with an ankle injury. Is he back this week?

Week eight is here and the inactives are out. Among them is Harrison Bryant who was Questionable for the game with an elbow injury.

Jakobi Meyers injury update

Meyers is in line to start today against he Chiefs after missing the past two games with an ankle injury. Getting Meyers back is a big boost for the Raiders whose passing game has struggled to find suitable replacements for his role in the offense.

Since Davante Adams requested a trade, Meyers has been the team’s number one receiver, so he is vital to the success of the offense.

Harrison Bryant injury update

Bryant has been a reliable number two tight end since Michael Mayer was lost to an undisclosed illness and placed on the Non-football Illness list. He will be replaced by John Samuel Shenker with practice squad call up Justin Shorter as the team’s number three TE.

Raiders vs Chiefs injury report: Latest updates, news for Week 8

All the latest updates and news on Raidrers injury report ahead of a Week 8 game vs. Chiefs.

Thursday’s injury report brought mainly bad news for the Raiders. Not only was tight end Harrison Bryant still missing from practice with his elbow injury, but Jakobi Meyers was back to missing practice after returning on Wednesday, suggesting perhaps a setback in his hopeful return this week.

Jakobi Meyers injury update

Meyers has missed the last two games for the Raiders, and with Davante Adams also traded away, the Raiders were without their two starting outside receivers. Tre Tucker will start again on the outside with DJ Turner in the slot, but if Meyers can’t go, he will once again be replaced by committee.

Harrison Bryant injury update

Barnes left last Sunday’s game with an elbow injury and didn’t return. He was replaced by John Samuel Shenker. Brock Bowers is the unquestioned starter, but Bryant was showing up well as a number two option. Justin Shorter was on roster as well and would step into the third TE job is Bryant can’t go.

Maxx Crosby injury update

Crosby missed practice Thursday after practicing FULL on Wednesday. While that seems a bit strange, we will wait and see what Friday looks like because Crosby has missed multiple practices each week the past three weeks and still played.

Kolton Miller injury update

Miller returned to practice Thursday as expected. He has been dealing with an elbow injury but it hasn’t caused him to miss any games.

Raiders Week 8 injury report vs Chiefs: 3 missing from practice

Bryant injured his elbow in Sunday’s game against the Rams. John Samuel Shenker took his reps on offense.

Kolton Miller has begun each week missing practice, but has played each week.

Dylan Parham missed Sunday’s game against the Rams. Jordan Meredith took his place in the lineup.

Raiders PFF grades: 5 highest rated from Week 4 vs. Browns

Raiders PFF grades: 5 highest rated from Week 4 vs. Browns

The Raiders beat the Browns on Sunday, but not until defensive end Charles Snowden sacked Cleveland quarterback Deshaun Watson in the game’s final seconds. But another Las Vegas EDGE player earned the top spot on Pro Football Focus’ weekly list of highest-graded Raiders.

It’s former first-round pick Tyree Wilson. He finished with an 82.7 grade to pace the silver and black.

Wilson didn’t make a large impact on Sunday with conventional statistics. He had one tackle and two QB hits. But it was easy to see that he provided pressure on passing downs early in the game. Plus, he played over 70 percent of the snaps on defense, so this grade is no fluke. If Wilson, the former first-round draft pick, can build off this performance, it could be huge for the Raiders.

Two more defenders made the list. Defensive lineman Christian Wilkins had his best game as a Raider and earned a 78.6 grade. Safety Isaiah Pola-Mao entered the starting lineup in place of injured S Marcus Epps and was an immediate impact player, earning a grade just below Wilkins’ at 78.2.

Two players on offense closed the list out, and they both stepped up for injured teammates as well. Tight end Harrison Bryant subbed in for TE Michael Mayer, who was ruled out on Sunday for personal reasons. Wide receiver Jakobi Meyers stepped up in the absence of injured star WR Davante Adams.

But no question, Wilson’s performance is the headline here. He’s underperformed in his short career, but he’s been dealing with injuries since the NFL Draft process. If he can provide a boost on the edge to help superstar DE Maxx Crosby when he returns from his ankle injury, the Raiders defense could take a massive leap forward.
