Hope seemed to leave the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/jets-news-davante-adams-truthful-wish-raiders-controversial-split">Raiders after they traded Davante Adams to the Jets</a>. Now the Raiders may be without their top wide receiver for a crucial game against the Rams.</p><p>Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers <a href="https://x.com/VicTafur/status/1847052670663905701" rel="noopener">did not practice on Thursday</a>, per The Athletic Vic Tafur. Meyers has missed multiple practices with an ankle injury, which makes his availability this weekend an open question. This is more concerning because Raiders coach Antonio Pierce had mentioned that the goal was to get Meyers back out there on Thursday.</p><p>This is bad news for a Raiders offense that needs all the juice it can get. Las Vegas is hurting for offensive playmakers after trading Davante Adams to the Jets and now possibly without Meyers in Week 7.</p><p>If Meyers does miss this week, the Raiders will be forced to turn to Tre Tucker and DJ Turner as their primary wide receivers. This would also put a ton of pressure on rookie tight end Brock Bowers to produce at a high volume.</p><p>It won’t get any easier for the Raiders either.
