Alexander Mattison

Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce said Alexander Mattison (ankle) will “probably” be active for Week 15 against the Falcons.

Pierce noted that Sincere McCormick would remain the team’s No. 1 back, so Mattison’s return won’t change much in the backfield. Mattison was limited in all three practices last week but was held out on Sunday. He should be upgraded to a full participant this week before being cleared for action. Fantasy managers shouldn’t worry about stashing Mattison even in deep leagues. McCormick, on the other hand, has worked himself into an RB3 ranking going forward.
