Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers had a huge debut in Week 1, catching two touchdown passes in the team’s win over the Denver Broncos, but he is not expected to play in Week 2.

The Raiders take on the Bills in Week 2, but Meyers remains in concussion protocol after he was injured at the end of the Denver game.

With Meyers out, the Raiders are going to need to turn elsewhere on offense alongside Davante Adams.

Jakobi Meyers is in concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Week 2.

Best Raiders prop bet target with Jakobi Meyers out

Davante Adams anytime touchdown scorer

Adams is one of the best wideouts in all of football, but he took a bit of a backseat in Week 1 since he was dealing with Broncos star cornerback Patrick Surtain II. 

With Meyers out in Week 2, Adams may get all the targets he can handle for the Raiders. Adams still made six catches in Week 1, and he caught 14 scores in Josh McDaniels’ offense last season. 

He’s a terrific bet to score.
