Jakobi Meyers - Held back by QB's poor play Meyers caught his only target for 19 yards in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.

Impact Meyers' lone target didn't come until the fourth quarter, as Jimmy Garoppolo threw for just 62 yards through the first three quarters and finished with 126 passing yards in the quarterback's return from a back injury. The wide receiver also made a heads-up play later in the fourth to momentarily keep the Raiders' faint hopes alive, jumping on top of a Josh Jacobs fumble and advancing it one yard. Meyers had at least four catches in four of his previous six appearances this season, so he'll likely be much more involved in Week 9 against the Giants, assuming Garoppolo puts forth a sharper performance.

Jimmy Garoppolo - Dreadful in return Garoppolo (back) completed 10 of 21 passes for 126 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions. He added two rushing attempts for 12 yards.

Impact Garoppolo looked rusty in his return from a one-game absence due to a back injury. He had just 31 passing yards with an interception in the first half, and things didn't get much better after halftime. Vegas' first touchdown was scored by Josh Jacobs on the ground, and the second came courtesy of the defense on a pick-six. Garoppolo's leg bent awkwardly when he took an illegal low hit in the fourth quarter, but the oft-injured quarterback managed to stay in the game, and a silver lining from this ugly performance is that Garoppolo seems to have walked away healthy. He'll look to shake off the rust at home against the Giants in Week 9.

Josh Jacobs - Plays well despite QB's struggles Jacobs rushed 15 times for 61 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions. He also caught two of four targets for 27 yards.

Impact After the Lions scored the game's first nine points, Jacobs took over on the Raiders' second-quarter touchdown drive, rushing six times for 38 yards on the possession, including a three-yard touchdown run to get Vegas on the board. Jacobs averaged 4.9 YPC last season, but his 4.1 YPC on Monday was actually his best single-game mark of 2023, as he came in averaging an ugly 2.9 YPC through seven games. With Jimmy Garoppolo throwing for just 126 yards in his return from a back injury, the Raiders failed to take advantage of Jacobs' solid efficiency, and the running back actually led the team in receiving yards as well. Jacobs will look to build off this effort Week 9 against the 2-6 Giants.

Davante Adams - One catch on seven MNF targets Adams caught one of seven targets for 11 yards in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.

Impact Adams was held without a catch in the first half as Jimmy Garoppolo mustered only 31 first-half passing yards in the quarterback's return from a back injury. The star receiver finally got into the box score with an 11-yard catch on the first play of the second half, but that was his only reception, even though Adams was the only Raider with more than four targets in this one. Garoppolo finished with just 126 yards and missed an open Adams a few times, including on a deep ball in the fourth quarter that would have produced a touchdown with an accurate throw. Las Vegas has been intent on keeping Adams ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, and assuming the team doesn't have a last-minute change of heart in that regard, Adams will hope for better play from Garoppolo in Week 9 against the Giants.

Monday Night Football highlights: Lions pounce on Raiders in Detroit

Week 8 of the NFL season comes to a close Monday with the Raiders facing the Lions at Ford Field. Here are the top moments!

OCTOBER 31, 2023

Monday Night Football highlights: Lions pounce on Raiders in Detroit

Jakob Johnson - Won't return Monday Johnson (concussion) won't return to Monday's game against the Lions.

Impact Johnson exited in the second half Monday to be evaluated for a concussion and will now miss the remainder of the game. The Raiders will be left without a fullback for the remainder of the contest and Johnson will focus on getting healthy and clearing the concussion protocol.

OCTOBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Luke Masterson - Ruled out versus Detroit Masterson (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Lions.

Impact Masterson exited the game in the third quarter and will now miss the remainder of the contest. Amari Burney should now see increased playing time and Masterson will have to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to play again.

OCTOBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Hoyer - Inactive Monday night Hoyer is inactive for Monday night's game against the Lions.

Impact Hoyer drew the start in the Raiders' Week 7 loss to the Bears, but with Jimmy Garoppolo (back) having returned to the lineup, Hoyer has been deemed inactive Monday. As a result, Aidan O'Connell is slated to serve as the team's No. 2 QB versus Detroit.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

James McCourt - Healthy scratch Monday McCourt (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's contest at Detroit.

Impact The Raiders elevated McCourt from the practice squad Monday as insurance in the event their regular kicker Daniel Carlson was unable to play through a groin injury. Having said that, Carlson is active for Week 8, relegating McCourt to a healthy scratch.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nate Hobbs - Set to return Monday Hobbs (ankle) is active for Monday's contest against the Lions.

Impact Hobbs missed the last four games with an ankle injury but appears to be good to go for Monday's game after putting in three limited sessions in practice leading up to Week 8. He'll resume his role at starting cornerback opposite veteran Marcus Peters.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Carlson - Active in Week 8 Carlson (groin) is listed as active Monday at Detroit.

Impact Carlson managed only one limited practice in advance of this Week 8 contest, but his groin injury won't impact his availability Monday. He'll thus be facing a Lions team that has given up the ninth-fewest field-goal attempts (14) and 12th-fewest point-after tries (14) to opposing kickers this season.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Carlson - Slated to play Monday Carlson (groin) is in line to be the Raiders' placekicker Monday at Detroit, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact After missing the first two practices of Week 8 prep due to a groin injury, Carlson was able to log a limited session Saturday and put himself in a position to play Monday. The Raiders won't confirm his availability until about 90 minutes before the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, but it appears as if Carlson will be active and James McCourt may be a healthy scratch for Las Vegas after the latter was elevated from the practice squad.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Kana'i Mauga - Headed to IR Las Vegas placed Mauga (knee) on its injured reserve list Monday.

Impact He had already been ruled out for Week 8, but now Mauga will also be forced to miss the Raiders' next three games following Monday's contest. In his absence, Las Vegas will be forced to lean more heavily on Luke Masterson for snaps at linebacker.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Curtis Bolton - Coming off IR Las Vegas activated Bolton (knee) from its injured reserve list for Monday's game at Detroit.

Impact Bolton will return from a four-game stint on the Raiders' injured reserve list in Week 8. He's played exclusively on special teams in three games this season and will likely resume that role Monday at the Lions.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

DJ Turner - Promoted to active roster The Raiders elevated Turner to the active roster Monday.

Impact Turner joined the Raiders' practice squad on Oct. 16 after being let go by the team with an injury settlement during training camp. He played for Las Vegas last season and logged 95 snaps -- 74 on special teams and 21 on offense -- in nine games.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

James McCourt - Could kick for Vegas on Monday The Raiders elevated McCourt from their practice squad prior to Monday's game against the Lions, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact The decision to elevate McCourt would seem to hint that the Raiders may have some doubt about the availability of kicker Daniel Carlson (groin), who is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. The Raiders will release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to that point, which will shed light on whether Carlson will suit up. If Carlson is sidelined for the Week 9 contest, McCourt would be on track to make his NFL debut. During his collegiate career at Illinois, McCourt converted 37 of 52 field-goal attempts (71.2 percent).
