Ameer Abdullah skips preseason

Ameer Abdullah did not play this preseason, which implies his role on the team is secure. Abdullah is primed for a pass-catching role in the Vegas backfield this year.

Fantasy Impact: Neither Abdullah nor Brandon Bolden played this preseason, so it’s unclear which will take on the “James White” role in the Raiders offense this year. It could be both, but Abdullah is the more likely option. He could be worth a flier in PPR leagues, given his upside in the passing game.
