Raiders' Ameer Abdullah: Loses key fumble
Abdullah rushed the ball four times for 24 yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers. He added three receptions on five targets for 14 yards.
Abdullah had moments of productivity as the change-of-pace back behind Alexander Mattison, but that was overshadowed by a key mistake early in the fourth quarter. With the Raiders one yard away from cutting Pittsburgh's lead to one possession, Abdullah lost a fumble at the hands of T.J. Watt. He didn't record an offensive stat thereafter, and he compounded his problems by muffing a punt just one possession later.

Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Tallies touchdown as lead back
Mattison rushed the ball 14 times for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers. He added five receptions on five targets for 32 yards.
Mattison served as the lead back for the second consecutive week in the absence of Zamir White (groin). He accounted for the majority of his production on the Raiders' first offensive possession, during which Mattison recorded 25 yards on the ground and 19 on the ground while also recording his touchdown. If White is sidelined again for a Week 7 matchup against the Rams, Mattison should have the ongoing chance to be productive thanks to projected volume.

Raiders' Brock Bowers: Double-digit targets again
Bowers recorded nine receptions on 10 targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
With both Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) sidelined, Bowers was able to serve as the Raiders' top pass catcher for the second consecutive week. Aidan O'Connell was hesitant to push the ball down the field, leaving Bowers to do the majority of his damage after the catch. While his stat line is impressive enough, he also served as the lead blocker on Alexander Mattison's touchdown run in the first quarter and also had a one-handed catch wiped away by a penalty. Even once Meyers and potentially Adams return to the offense, Bowers has shown enough to maintain a significant role.

Raiders' Aidan O'Connell: Mediocre in first start of 2024
O'Connell completed 27 of 40 passes for 227 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
O'Connell took over as the Raiders' starting quarterback and faced a tough test against the Pittsburgh defense. He got off to a hot start by leading Las Vegas to a touchdown on the team's opening possession, and he went 4-for-4 for 45 yards while working primarily in short areas of the field. While O'Connell remained accurate throughout the game, he was hesitant to push the ball downfield and had only one completion of more than 20 yards. Assuming he stays under center in Week 7 against the Rams, O'Connell could be a bit more aggressive, though expectations should remain in check.

Raiders' Dylan Parham: Exits early
Parham (foot) has left Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Parham had previously been dealing with an Achilles injury, although this could be unrelated. The Raiders will be turning to Jordan Meredith to fill in at right guard.

Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Set to lead backfield
Mattison is in line to lead the Raiders backfield Sunday against the Steelers with Zamir White (groin) inactive.
With White on the pine Week 5 at Denver, Mattison started and earned a 57 percent snap share en route to 15 carries for 38 yards and two catches (on three targets) for 23 yards. Meanwhile, Ameer Abdullah handled 44 percent of plays, with most of his 51 yards from scrimmage coming on a 40-yard carry, though he did have a three-yard touchdown run. A similar breakdown of reps between Mattison and Abdullah likely will come to pass Sunday.

Raiders' Thayer Munford: Remains out
Munford (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Munford will miss his third straight game, leaving the Raiders without their starting right tackle once again. Delmar Glaze should continue filling in at the position.

Raiders' Tommy Eichenberg: Sidelined for Week 6
Eichenberg (hamstring) is not playing against the Steelers, reports Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald.
Eichenberg will be out of action for the second time this season, leaving the Raiders lighter on linebacker depth. Amari Gainer will be a likely candidate to see extra work in the Ohio State product's absence.

Raiders' Trey Taylor: Making debut
Taylor (knee) is active Sunday against the Steelers. Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.
Taylor has been on injured reserve for the entirety of his rookie campaign, delaying his debut. The 2024 seventh-round selection figures to be a depth option in the Raiders' secondary now that he's healthy enough to compete.

Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Sitting out in Week 6
Meyers (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Steelers.
After logging one limited practice (Friday) during Week 6 prep, Meyers received a questionable designation ahead of the weekend, but his downgrade to doubtful Saturday signaled that he was destined for his first absence of the campaign due to an ankle injury. With Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined for a third consecutive contest, the Raiders' receiving corps will be composed of Tre Tucker, DJ Turner, Tyreik McAllister, Alex Bachman and Kristian Wilkerson on Sunday.

Raiders' Zamir White: Inactive again in Week 6
White (groin) is listed as inactive Sunday versus the Steelers.
This marks White's second absence in a row due to a groin injury, but on a positive note he was able to practice in a limited capacity Friday for the first time since the issue appeared at the beginning of Week 5 prep. In White's stead, Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah will handle backfield reps for the Raiders in roughly a 60/40 breakdown.

Raiders' Zamir White: Looks unlikely to suit up Week 6
White (groin) remains listed as questionable but is viewed as a "longshot" to play in Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Though White returned to practice in a limited fashion Friday, the Raiders seem to be leaning toward holding the 25-year-old running back out for a second straight game. Official word on White's status will arrive when the Raiders post their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff, but if he sits out as expected, he would still seem to be on a positive track to return Week 7 for a battle with the Rams. Alexander Mattison led Las Vegas' backfield in White's absence last week against Denver and will likely reprise that role again Sunday, with Ameer Abdullah mixing in for change-of-pace work.

Raiders' Trey Taylor: Activated from injured reserve
Taylor (knee) was activated from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday.
Taylor was a seventh-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft and began his rookie season on IR. He turned in two full practices to close the week, so he should have the chance to make his NFL debut Sunday against the Steelers.

Raiders' Kristian Wilkerson: Looks likely for 2024 debut
Wilkerson was elevated from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Wilkerson made a pair of appearances with the Raiders in 2023 but has yet to be active on game day in 2024. With Jakobi Meyers (ankle) officially listed as doubtful, Wilkerson has a chance to change that in Week 6.

Raiders' Alex Bachman: Third straight elevation
Bachman was elevated from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Bachman has now been elevated to the active roster for three consecutive weeks. He played only one offensive snap on the first two occasions, though he could be slightly more involved, as Davante Adams (hamstring) is out and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) is officially listed as doubtful.

Raiders' Davante Adams: May not be moved after all
Adams (hamstring) could remain with the Raiders this season, despite recent trade discussions involving the star wideout, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Schefter describes Adams' situation as "fluid and unpredictable" while pointing out that the wideout's trade outlook "seems to change weekly." Among the factors that may play into the likelihood of Adams being traded is his current hamstring injury, which will keep him out of action for a third straight game Sunday against the Steelers, as well as Las Vegas' reported asking price of at least a second-draft pick. Additionally, Las Vegas has expressed a reluctance to pay any of the $72.5 million remaining on Adams' contract, which runs through the 2026 season. Adams' potential to upgrade another team's passing game is unquestioned -- he has four straight campaigns of over 1,100 receiving yards and at least eight touchdowns on his resume -- but it remains unclear whether an organization will be willing to meet the Raiders' high asking price. For his part, Adams seems to be receptive to returning to action for the Raiders once he's healthy if a trade isn't worked out. Schefter notes that the 31-year-old veteran is a big supporter of second-year quarterback Aidan O'Connell, who was appointed to the starting role this week in place of the struggling Gardner Minshew.
