Raiders place Jalen Richard on reserve/COVID list ahead of Week 13
The Las Vegas Raiders have placed running back Jalen Richard on the reserve/COVID list ahead of their Week 13 game against the Washington Football Team.
What It Means:
Richard hasn't gotten much run in 2021 after the Raiders signed Kenyan Drake in free agency, but his status could affect the other players in the Raiders' running back room if they are deemed close contacts of Richard's. This will be a situation to monitor as kickoff approaches.
Josh Jacobs (ankle) could see a slight bump in target share with Richard sidelined, but Richard's role this season has been extremely limited. Our models project Jacobs (who has a $7,000 salary on FanDuel) for 14.4 fantasy points against the Football Team.
