News: 3 hours agoMeyers didn't catch his only target in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Seahawks.

Spin: New Raiders quarterback Geno Smith played only one drive while some other starters played into the team's second possession. Meyers and Smith will have to wait to register their first connection in an NFL game, but the veteran wide receiver is poised to remain a key component of Vegas' offense come the regular season. Meyers has little to prove in the preseason, but he and the rest of the starters may get more playing time in the team's second preseason game against the 49ers on Aug. 16.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Perhaps the most underrated player in fantasy, Meyers enters 2025 eyeing his fifth consecutive top-30 fantasy campaign. The veteran is one of 10 receivers with 67-plus receptions and 800-plus receiving yards in each of the past four seasons and he peaked with career highs in targets, catches, yards and end zone targets (11) in 2024. The 28-year-old has dealt with shaky QB play in recent seasons, but is in a better spot this season with Geno Smith under center and Pete Carroll coaching the team. Second only to Brock Bowers in target priority, Meyers figures to again push for WR3/flex numbers, but will likely be undervalued on draft day.
