  • Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Opens week with full practice

    Mattison (ankle) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Mattison's full participation in practice to kick off Week 15 prep clears the way for him to put an end to his three-game absence Monday against the Falcons, but he'll likely find himself in a smaller role than he enjoyed prior to missing time with the ankle injury. Per Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site, head coach Antonio Pierce announced Wednesday that Sincere McCormick will remain the team's starting running back moving forward, which likely means Mattison will see a reduction in the 9.7 carries per game he had averaged for the season before suffering the injury. McCormick hasn't shown much prowess as a receiver, however, so Mattison could be called upon to replace him on passing downs after averaging a healthy 9.8 yards per reception prior to his recent absence.

  • Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Expected to return in backup role

    Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce said Wednesday that he expects Mattison (ankle) to be available for Monday's game against the Falcons, though the running back is likely to fill a backup role moving forward, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Mattison appears on track to put an end to his three-game absence this week, but Pierce implied that Sincere McCormick has performed well enough over the past few contests to remain the team's lead back. Mattison had averaged 12.2 touches per game over his 10 appearances prior to missing time with the injury, but he struggled to take advantage of his opportunities, averaging just 3.3 yards per carry and 8.4 yards per target while scoring four touchdowns. Though McCormick should continue to pace the Las Vegas backfield in carries, Mattison should be the top change-of-pace option while Ameer Abdullah slides down to third on the depth chart.

  • Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Not playing Sunday

    Mattison (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    With Mattison and Zamir White (quadricep) set to miss their third consecutive games, the Raiders will turn to Ameer Abdullah and Sincere McCormick to pick up most of the snaps out of the backfield. Prior to missing time with the ankle injury, Mattison had been serving as the Raiders' lead back and had earned at least eight touches in each of his last six appearances, but it's unclear if he'll be in store for meaningful volume once he shakes off the ankle injury. Mattison is on an expiring contract, and after averaging just 3.3 yards per carry on the season, the non-contending Raiders may not be incentivized to give extensive work to a player who might not be part of the team heading into 2025.

  • Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Appears set to miss another game

    Mattison (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, isn't likely to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Mattison logged a trio of limited practices this week, but he doesn't appear ready to return to action. Assuming he's made inactive ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, it will be the veteran tailback's third straight absence. Zamir White (quadricep) has already been ruled out for Week 14, so Las Vegas' backfield will likely be lead by Sincere McCormick on the ground, while Ameer Abdullah serves as the top change-of-pace option.

  • Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Questionable for Sunday

    Mattison (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Tampa Bay, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    For a second straight week, Mattison has operated with a cap on his reps and ended it as questionable to suit up. He ultimately was inactive last Friday at Kansas City, but if he returns this weekend there's a chance he'll retake control of the Raiders backfield from Ameer Abdullah and Sincere McCormick, with Zamir White (quadriceps) still sidelined.

  • Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Remains limited in practice

    Mattison (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.

    Mattison has now been listed as limited on five consecutive practice reports, but after missing the Raiders' last two contests, he may need to upgrade to full participation Friday in order to avoid carrying a designation into Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. Even if Mattison gets the green light to play Sunday, he may not take on as expansive of a role out of the Las Vegas backfield as he had enjoyed prior to sustaining the ankle injury. Mattison is averaging just 3.3 yards per carry on the season, and the Raiders had success on the ground in his absence with 2022 undrafted free agent Sincere McCormick, who gained 97 yards on 17 totes (5.7 YPC) over the past two weeks.

  • Raiders' Alexander Mattison: Limited in practice

    Mattison (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.

    Fellow running back Zamir White (quadriceps) was a non-participant and thus appears more likely than Mattison to miss a third straight game this Sunday in Tampa. Ameer Abdullah filled in as the starting back the past two weeks, but Sincere McCormick had a significant role in the second game, taking 38 percent of snaps and a team-high 12 carries (for 64 yards) in the 19-17 loss to Kansas City last Friday. It's difficult to project how large Mattison's role will be if he returns to action this Sunday, considering he's averaging 3.3 yards per carry this season and has reached 40 rushing yards in just one of his five starts. He's also on an expiring contract, which could be enough reason for the Raiders to open up more work for McCormick, a third-year player whom Las Vegas will be able to retain heading into 2025 as an exclusive-rights free agent.
