Ameer Abdullah
RB - LV
2023 Outlook
According to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team, the Las Vegas Raiders are bringing back RB/KR Ameer Abdullah on a one-year deal.
Fantasy Impact
In his first season with the Raiders, Abdullah was used as both a kick returner and a running back. Abdullah recorded an average of 20.9 yards per return and caught 25 passes for 211 yards and a score. Abdullah also played on 50% of the team's special teams snaps. His return adds depth and special teams ability.
Ameer Abdullah caught both of his targets for 27 yards in the Raiders loss to the Steelers on Christmas Eve.
Fantasy Impact
Once again, Abdullah did not factor into the Raiders' rushing attack but has two receptions in three straight games. That's not enough to make him fantasy relevant, but at least he's getting touches.
Ameer Abdullah caught both of his targets for 14 yards in a win over the Patriots.
Fantasy Impact
Abdullah continues to operate in the third-down role for the Raiders or when Josh Jacobs needs a breather. The 29-year-old can safely be left on the waiver wire.
Ameer Abdullah caught both his targets for 17 yards in the Raiders' 17-16 loss to the Rams on Thursday night. Abdullah did not have a rushing attempt and played only eight snaps.
Fantasy Impact
Abdullah has no fantasy value as long as Josh Jacobs is playing. His season-high in touches is six, and he's not played more than 19 snaps in a game all year. If the hand injury Jacobs suffered on Thursday night keeps him out of the lineup, Abdullah would likely split snaps with rookie Zamir White and could be a desperate start in deep PPR leagues.
Ameer Abdullah rushed three times for 16 yards and caught all three of his targets for 39 yards and a TD in the Raiders' victory on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
The TD was Abdullah's first of the season and gave him fantasy relevance in Week 12. However, his six touches were a season-high as Josh Jacobs continues to dominate the Raiders backfield. Abdullah is a risky bet for fantasy purposes as long as Jacobs is healthy.
