Aside from football, Kawada is an avid combat sports and basketball bettor.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Las Vegas Raiders</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>Jakobi Meyers is not elite by any means, but is easily one of the most underrated wideouts in the NFL. After showing promise <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/patriots-jakobi-meyers-vocal-amid-uncertain-future-in-new-england">early in his career with the New England Patriots</a>, the Las Vegas Raiders receiver recorded his first 1,000-yard season in 2024 and is on the verge of a full breakout.</p><p>Since leaving the Patriots in the 2023 offseason, Meyers is coming off consecutive career-best seasons with the Raiders. The 28-year-old hauled in a career-high eight touchdowns in 2023, before setting another personal best in 2024 with 1,027 receiving yards. Ahead of his third season with Las Vegas, Meyers is the <a href="https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-most-underrated-players-all-32-nfl-teams-2025" rel="noopener">most underrated player on the team</a>, according to Pro Football Focus.</p><p>“With [Davante] Adams gone since Week 3 of 2024, Meyers really stepped up, earning 108 targets and going for 875 receiving yards and 1.87 yards per route run to rank second on the team, behind only Brock Bowers,” the PFF article read. “Meyers has established himself as a reliable second option in the passing game for the Raiders, ranking 39th in PFF receiving grade (78.2) and 17th in total targets (232) among 147 qualifying wide receivers since 2023.”</p><p>Any Patriots fan could have seen Meyers’ breakout coming a mile away. Meyers led the team in receiving in 2022 and 2023, his final two seasons with the team. He sought an extension once his rookie deal expired, but was surprised to discover that the front office was ready to move on. Instead of extending Meyers, New England signed JuJu Smith-Schuster in the 2023 offseason, who mustered just 260 receiving yards in his lone season with the team.</p><h2><b>Jakobi Meyers ready for next step with Raiders in 2025</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Jakobi-Meyers-celebrating.jpg"><figcaption>Stephen R. Sylvanie-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Meyers has long been a victim of subpar quarterback play, dealing with the frustrating inconsistency of Mac Jones, Gardner Minshew and Aidan O’Connell throughout his career. However, with the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/raiders-news-shocking-geno-smith-trade-seahawks">Raiders trading for Geno Smith</a> in the offseason, Meyers will get to work with the best signal-caller of his career in 2025.</p><p>Meyers will undoubtedly begin the year as the Raiders’ top receiver, but he will have more competition for targets than he did a year ago. Las Vegas added dynamic wideouts Jack Bech and Dont’e Thornton Jr. in the 2025 NFL Draft to bolster a previously lackluster receiving corps. The group all follows tight end Brock Bowers, who is coming off a historic rookie campaign.</p><p>Las Vegas won just four games in 2024 but already has significantly higher expectations for the 2025 season. The hiring of Pete Carroll and subsequent offseason moves have fans as optimistic as they have been in years.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

You know, I don’t think, I mean, I can’t equate age to it at all, but it’s just kind of a natural thing to do. If you want to go for it, you’ve got to go for it every day.”</p><p>At any rate, Las Vegas looks to improve after finishing with a 4-13 record, which put them last in the AFC West.

Also, Jakobi Meyers joined O’Connell on the Week 14 injury report <a href="https://x.com/gregauman/status/1864784004018315739" rel="noopener">with an ankle problem</a>, according to a post on X by Greg Auman.</p><p>The Raiders remain in the dark days of an eight-game losing streak after starting the year with a 2-2 mark. However, they are coming off an encouraging effort against the Chiefs, a 19-17 loss that slipped away in the final seconds.</p><p>This week the Raiders will take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.</p><h2><b>Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers dealing with injury</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Los-Angeles-Raiders-WR-Jakobi-Meyers.jpg"><figcaption>Denny Medley-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Since Davante Adams shipped off to the Jets, Meyers has been the Raiders’ clear No. 1 wide receiver. In his sixth NFL season, Myers is having one of his best seasons. In 2021, he totaled 83 catches for 866 yards, and this year’s 59 grabs for 676 yards puts him on pace the rival those career-high numbers.</p><p>Myers took over as WR1 for the Raiders on Oct. 27. Since then he has received target numbers of 7, 11, 6, 15, and 11. He also has two 100-yard receiving efforts, and another game with 97.</p><p>Raiders’ head coach Antonio Pierce threw <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/raiders/news/las-vegas-raiders-the-rush-with-maxx-crosby-antonio-pierce-jakobi-meyers-nfl-free-agency" rel="noopener">plenty of praise</a> toward Meyers before the season started, according to Sports Illustrated.</p><p>“This dude is different,” Pierce said. “They’re all about catching the ball. This dude will do whatever. Not even the dirty work. It’s just like, he’s a team dude. You just watch him; he nods his head, he’ll run, he’ll catch the ball, he’ll block, he’ll start throwing the ball for us. What couldn’t he do?</p><p>“(He’s) like the ultimate team player. To be honest, if he’s on the other team, he’s a No. 1 receiver. Not even close. I can’t speak more highly of him of how unselfish he is as a player. We’re a better team because of him. You need guys like Jakobi.”</p><p>If Myers can’t go, Tre Tucker bumps up to WR1 while tight end Brock Bowers elevates his already sizable role.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

I would have a major issue if I was a player, especially another grown man calling you soft. I mean, those are fighting words.”</p><p>Crosby was especially upset about these comments because Mayo is a former player.
