Traded to Atlanta
The Raiders traded Edwards and a 2023 seventh-round pick to the Falcons on Friday in exchange for Atlanta's 2023 fifth-round pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The Falcons continue to add to their pass-catching corps with the addition of another big-bodied wideout. Edwards faced an uphill battle for target volume in Las Vegas with the acquisition of Davante Adams, but the 6-foot-3 wide receiver has a chance to carve out a solid role in Atlanta. The Falcons overhauled the wideout group this offseason in the wake of Calvin Ridley's suspension, led by the selection of Drake London in the first round; however, behind the rookie and phenom tight end Kyle…read more

Facing added competition
Edwards appeared likely to enter his third NFL season as the No. 3 option at wide receiver for the Raiders following the team's trade for first-team All-Pro Davante Adams, but the recent addition of Demarcus Robinson could create a job battle for Edwards, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Edwards' sophomore campaign in Las Vegas included a 34-571-3 line on 59 targets in 16 games, but he fell well behind teammates Hunter Renfrow and Zay Jones from a production standpoint throughout the latter half of the 2021 regular season. Jones has since departed for Jacksonville, but the aforementioned Adams' arrival brings another volume-heavy playmaker to an aerial attack that also features tight end Darren Waller. Edwards has the physical tools to beat out Robinson for a starting job…read more

Leads team in receiving yards Sunday
Edwards caught four of five targets for 63 yards in Sunday's overtime thriller against the Chargers, which ended in a 35-32 victory for the Raiders.
Analysis: Edwards saw north of four targets Sunday night for just the second time since Week 5, bringing his regular season totals to 34 catches for 571 yards and three touchdowns on 59 targets in 16 games. The 2020 third-rounder failed to match the production of fellow receivers Hunter Renfrow and Zay Jones through the latter half of his sophomore campaign, but Edwards still showed signs of improvement after a rookie season that was derailed by ankle and foot injuries. He'll remain involved on the…read more

Targeted twice in return
Edwards was unable to haul in either of his two targets during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Edwards was dealt a full workload with 46 offensive snaps in his return from the reserve/COVID-19 list, but the second-year receiver was overshadowed by Zay Jones and Hunter Renfrow, who combined for 15 total catches on 19 targets for 196 yards and a touchdown. Not only has Jones' rapport with quarterback Derek Carr sharpened in recent weeks, but tight end Darren Waller (knee/back/illness) also has a legitimate chance to return to the lineup against the Chargers, so Edwards' target share may…read more

Clears COVID-19 protocols
The Raiders activated Edwards (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Analysis: Edwards returns to the 53-man roster four days after landing on the list, implying that he was asymptomatic upon testing positive for the virus. Though the timing of Edwards' placement on the list prevented him from playing in the Week 16 win over Denver, the brevity of his absence should put him on track to suit up Sunday in Indianapolis without any restrictions. Despite playing greater than 60 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps in all 14 of his appearances on the season, Edwards has…read more

The Raiders placed Edwards on the reserve/COVID-19 list prior to Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Analysis: Quarterback Marcus Mariota was also added to the list Sunday, leaving both players unavailable for the Week 16 matchup. Wideout Dillon Stoner was elevated from the practice squad to provide depth at the position with Edwards away from the team.

Hits paydirt in win
Edwards caught three of four targets for eight yards and a touchdown in Monday's 16-14 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Edwards' touchdown grab in the first quarter was the only time the Raiders found the end zone in the contest. Despite holding down a steady role on offense all season, the 23-year-old wideout has mostly disappointed, scoring three touchdowns while totaling just 30 receptions for 508 yards over 14 games. With matchups against the Broncos, Colts and Chargers to close out the season, Edwards will remain difficult to trust for fantasy purposes.

Raiders-Browns moved to Monday
Edwards and the Raiders will no longer play the Browns on Saturday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Monday at 5 p.m. ET.
Analysis: Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within the Cleveland organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Browns will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. Assuming the Week 15 game is played Monday as planned, Edwards and Las Vegas will face a quick turnaround for the Week 16 contest versus the Broncos, which is still expected to be played Sunday, Dec. 26 as scheduled.

Two catches in blowout loss
Edwards caught two of three targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 48-9 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Edwards was overshadowed once again by fellow receiver Hunter Renfrow, who racked up a career-high 13 receptions for 117 yards and a score as quarterback Derek Carr attempted 45 passes in the blowout defeat. Zay Jones picked up seven targets of his own, while tight end Foster Moreau and running back Josh Jacobs remained active in the Raiders' aerial attack as well.

Three grabs in loss
Edwards caught three of five targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 17-15 loss to Washington.
Analysis: Even with Derek Carr running out of healthy receiving options, Edwards still didn't see a large role in the offense, although his five targets were his highest volume since Week 5. The second-year wideout can still find himself on the end of the occasional big play, but he otherwise has little fantasy appeal heading into a Week 14 clash with Kansas City.

Targeted once against Dallas
Edwards caught his only target for 12 yards in the Raiders' 36-33 overtime victory over Dallas on Thanksgiving Day.
Analysis: Edwards, who was blanked by the Bengals in Week 11, remained unproductive Thursday while fellow receivers Hunter Renfrow, Zay Jones and DeSean Jackson combined for 16 catches on 20 targets for 295 yards and a score. Edwards' offensive snap share once again landed above the 70-percent mark, but he's essentially posted three duds in four games since the Raiders' Week 8 bye.

Not targeted in loss
Edwards was not targeted in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Edwards paced his position group in offensive snap share Sunday, but his only touch of the entire contest came early in the third quarter when he rushed for no gain on one carry. The Raiders' wide receiver corps ultimately combined for just six total targets, while tight end Darren Waller and running back Josh Jacobs saw a collective 15 looks from quarterback Derek Carr. Edwards should continue to receive ample playing time, however, so he'll look to bounce back Thursday in Dallas.

Leads Raiders in receiving
Edwards had three receptions (four targets) for 88 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-14 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Edwards bounced back from a rough zero-catch performance in Week 9, finishing one yard shy of his previous season high while also depositing his second touchdown this year. The 2020 third-round pick may see increased opportunities down the stretch with the Raiders being thin at the wide receiver position. Edwards will look to repeat Sunday's strong showing in a Week 11 matchup against the Bengals.

Silent against Giants
Edwards earned four targets but did not record a reception in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Edwards was among three Raiders to record four targets, though he get couldn't get on the same page with Derek Carr. Edwards has consistently been on the field for offensive snaps this season, but he has failed to record more than three catches in all but one game. The expected addition of DeSean Jackson will only make his potential for volume more tenuous moving forward.

Hauls in TD against Eagles
Edwards caught three of four targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-22 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: While he didn't see much volume, the second-year receiver was on the receiving end of a one-yard strike from Derek Carr in the third quarter that gave the Raiders a 30-7 lead and gave Edwards his first TD of the year. He has only 18 catches on the season, but seven of them have gone for 20 yards or more, and Edwards will remain a big-play threat on the other side of the team's Week 8 bye.

Makes highlight reel in Denver
Edwards secured two of four targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 34-24 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Edwards was held in check until he made a dazzling one-handed catch down the sideline on a key third down early in the fourth quarter that not only moved the chains but advanced the Raiders a momentous 51 yards and into enemy territory. The big play set up an eventual 30-yard field goal, which essentially put the contest out of reach. Edwards ultimately played 43 of 56 offensive snaps, but an Eagles secondary that just held Tampa Bay's Mike Evans to two catches for 27 yards awaits Week 7.

Two receptions against Bears
Edwards caught two of five targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 20-9 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Edwards has caught just three passes for 26 yards on nine targets over the Raiders' past two games despite playing at least 50 offensive snaps in each contest. He's yet to find the end zone or draw more than five targets in a given week this season, but Edwards' ample playing time should continue in a Week 6 matchup against the Broncos.

Edwards caught one of four targets for four yards in Monday's 28-14 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Edwards once again led all Raiders wide receivers in offensive snaps with 51, but he averaged just one yard per target after hauling in five total passes of 20-plus yards in Weeks 1-3. The Chargers defense also managed to funnel 13 targets in the directions of Hunter Renfrow and Josh Jacobs, who combined for just 62 receiving yards on 11 catches. Edwards will look to bounce back against the Bears in Week 5.

Big-play threat in OT win
Edwards caught three of five targets for a game-high 89 yards in Sunday's 31-28 overtime win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: The second-year wideout didn't get many looks from Derek Carr, but he made his catches count, hauling in passes of 23, 32 and 34 yards, with the latter two helping to set up both of the Raiders' field goals in OT. Late-game heroics are beginning to become a habit for Edwards, and he could get an opportunity for more big receptions Week 4 in an AFC West showdown with the Chargers.

Analysis: Edwards, who fell less than a yard shy of scoring in overtime during the Raiders' season opener, also had a touchdown grab negated by a holding penalty in Pittsburgh. The second-year wide receiver led his position group in snaps (74 percent), but he ultimately finished just fifth on the team in receiving with four other pass catchers recording five receptions apiece, as quarterback Derek Carr took advantage of an injury-riddled Steelers defense.

Denied walkoff TD reception
Edwards caught four of five targets for 81 yards Monday in Las Vegas' 33-27 overtime win over Baltimore.
Analysis: Though Edwards met expectations and perhaps even exceeded them for fantasy managers in deeper leagues that deployed him in Week 1 lineups, the second-year wideout narrowly missed out on producing an even bigger stat line.

Securing No. 2 role
Edwards is positioned to secure a starting role opposite fellow receiver Henry Ruggs after the Raiders granted John Brown's request to be released Tuesday, as NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported.
Analysis: Edwards appears to have won the starting spot without much legitimate competition from the aforementioned Brown, as the former was never asked to play a preseason snap while Raiders coach Jon Gruden kept much of the first-team offense sidelined. Edwards profiles as the team's primary "X" receiver across from Ruggs, which should allow the South Carolina product to compete with tight end Darren Waller for red-zone targets as well.

Getting red-zone looks in practice
Edwards has been a primary red-zone target of Derek Carr during training camp, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Raiders didn't trot out any of their top skill-position talent in the team's preseason opener Saturday against the Seahawks, meaning the Carr-Edwards connection potentially won't be seen in an actual game until Saturday, Aug. 21 at the Rams. Edwards didn't see much action as a third-round rookie last season en route to 11 catches (on 15 targets) for 193 yards and one touchdown in 12 appearances.

The Raiders expect Edwards and fellow second-year pro Henry Ruggs to start at wide receiver, Tashan Reed and Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Both were Week 1 starters as rookies last year, but Edwards injured his ankle Week 3 and was demoted to a reserve role when he returned in Week 9. The two 2020 draft picks combined for only 645 yards and five TDs, while Nelson Agholor emerged as the Raiders' No. 1 wide receiver with a 48/896/8 receiving line on 82 targets.

He flashed with four combined receptions for 90 yards between Weeks 2 and 3, but since returning from injury Week 9 against the Chargers, Edwards has yet to exceed one catch or 16 yards in any outing.

Could handle more reps
Coach Jon Gruden said Friday that Edwards could get a chance to play more over the final two games, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gruden cited the fact that Edwards was in COVID-19 protocol last week for his lack of playing time. Still, Edwards hasn't played more than 32 percent of the offensive snaps since Week 3, a trend that was well-established before entering COVID-19 protocol. However, he could get more reps down the stretch out of necessity if Hunter Renfrow (concussion) is forced to miss any time.

Two targets in blowout defeat
Edwards caught one pass for 15 yards on two targets in Sunday's 43-6 loss to the Falcons.
Analysis: Edwards' 19 offensive snaps Sunday more than doubled his amount from the Raiders' Week 11 loss to the Chiefs, but the rookie wide receiver is averaging just 1.25 targets per game since returning from foot and ankle injuries against the Chargers in Week 9.

Edwards caught one pass for one yard on two targets in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Edwards was targeted on two of his nine offensive snaps, but he's seemingly still being eased back into action since his Week 9 return from ankle and foot injuries. The Falcons' secondary has been generous to opposing wide receivers this season, but Edwards remains behind Nelson Agholor, Henry Ruggs and Hunter Renfrow at wide receiver ahead of a Week 12 matchup in Atlanta.

Edwards (foot/ankle) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Chargers.
Analysis: Edwards hasn't played a snap since Week 3, but now he has two full practices under his belt and is ready for Sunday's divisional tilt. Nelson Agholor has carved out a role in the Raiders' offense, so Edwards likely will operate as the No. 4 wide receiver behind Agholor, Henry Ruggs and Hunter Renfrow.

Edwards (foot/ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Edwards hasn't suited up for game action since Week 3 in New England, but his ability to practice fully Thursday would seem to indicate that he's on track to return against the Chargers on Sunday. Given how cautious the Raiders have been regarding Edwards' recovery, the team could opt to ease him back to action behind Henry Ruggs, Nelson Agholor and Hunter Renfrow, rather than counting on the rookie to immediately re-enter the starting rotation.

Analysis: Edwards put forth a trio of limited sessions leading up to Sunday's game, his first practice reps since suffering an ankle sprain Week 3.

Edwards is expected to be sidelined for the Raiders' Week 4 game against the Bills after spraining his ankle in Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Patriots, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Edwards is apparently dealing with a fairly significant sprain, as Rapoport notes that the Raiders are viewing him as week-to-week beyond the Bills game, suggesting the rookie could be in line to miss additional time. The Raiders' passing game has largely run through tight end Darren Waller this season, but Edwards has established himself as a starter at receiver for Las Vegas, totaling five receptions for 99 yards in three games while playing more than 60 percent of offensive snaps in the…read more

Spotted with walking boot
Edwards (ankle) was sporting a walking boot on his right foot Monday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: As Reed notes, it's early in the week, but Edwards' situation is one to monitor. Meanwhile, Vic Tafur of The Athletic relays that coach Jon Gruden acknowledged as Week 4's game against the Bills approaches that the team is "concerned about both" Edwards and Henry Ruggs (hamstring).

Misses most of second half
Edwards (ankle) missed the majority of the second half of Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Patriots, Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site reports.
Analysis: The wideout suffered an ankle injury after coming down awkwardly following one of the two catches (for 48 yards) he made Sunday while being targeted three times. Edwards' Week 4 status is now worth monitoring, along with that of fellow rookie pass catcher Henry Ruggs (hamstring), who was inactive against New England.

Ready for Week 3 action
Edwards (foot) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Analysis: The No. 81 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft logged limited practices this week, but he'll be able to give it a go Sunday and is thus slated to maintain his starting role in the team's offense. The Raiders will be without first-rounder Henry Ruggs (knee/hamstring) this week, meaning Zay Jones and Nelson Agholor are candidates for added snaps behind Edwards and Hunter Renfrow. Edwards caught both of his targets for 42 yards in this past Monday's win over the Saints, and with an increase in…read more

Listed as limited Wednesday
Edwards is listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's injury report with a foot injury.
Analysis: Edwards appears to have emerged from Monday's win over the Saints with the injury, though his "limited" designation may not mean that much since Wednesday's injury report is only an estimation. The rookie wideout will have two more opportunities to log a full practice session ahead of Sunday's contest in New England.

Two grabs on MNF
Edwards caught both his targets for 42 yards in Monday night's 34-24 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Edwards showed his big-play ability with a couple 20-plus yard grabs in his second NFL game. The imposing wideout actually trailed only Darren Waller for the team lead in receiving yards, but Waller was the only of 11 different Raiders pass-catchers to be targeted more than three times. That fact evidences the amount of unestablished options in Las Vegas' early-season passing game, but Edwards at least did well to distinguish himself in his two opportunities Monday.

Held to one reception in debut
Edwards caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Edwards' 46 offensive snaps ranked third among all rookie wide receivers during Sunday's slate of Week 1 contests, but lofty playing time didn't translate to immediate fantasy production as quarterback Derek Carr favored his running backs and tight end Darren Waller per usual. Nonetheless, coach Jon Gruden's early trust in Edwards to fill the outside role usually manned by Tyrell Williams (shoulder) is a promising sign heading into a Week 2 matchup against the Saints.

Listed as Week 1 starter
Edwards is listed as a starter on the Raiders' first unofficial depth chart.
Analysis: Edwards will join fellow rookie Henry Ruggs and second-year slot man Hunter Renfrow to compose one of the youngest wide receiver corps in the league. The combination of an outstanding training camp and a season-ending injury to Tyrell Williams (shoulder) opens the path for Edwards to take over a immediate starting role on the outside, though it's possible that Nelson Agholor and Zay Jones also could see notable early season work if the Raiders don't want to throw too much at the rookie out of…read more

Separating from the pack?
Edwards has seen more consistent reps with the first-team offense than the likes of Nelson Agholor and Zay Jones, Vic Tafur, Jimmy Durkin, Ted Nguyen and Tashan Reed of The Athletic's State of the Nation podcast report.
Analysis: Edwards appears to have already earned the trust of Las Vegas' training staff, as Tafur speculates that the team would not hesitate to start the South Carolina product in the event that Tyrell Williams (shoulder) were forced to miss time. Still, Williams appears to have a fair shot at playing through his torn labrum, and if the veteran is on the field it's unlikely that Edwards would immediately usurp him. Rookie first-round pick Henry Ruggs also appears locked into an immediate offensive role,…read more

Earning first-team reps
Edwards, who has fully recovered from a broken foot he suffered prior to being drafted by the Raiders in April, has been earning reps with the first-team offense during his maiden training camp, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Edwards' impressive combination of speed and strength at 6-2 and 212 pounds has been turning heads early in camp, enough so to earn his reps with the starters as he builds chemistry with quarterback Derek Carr and battles for a role at outside receiver. Even though he's unlikely to surpass veteran Tyrell Williams on the depth chart as a rookie, Edwards could certainly force his way into playing time after slipping in the draft due to the aforementioned foot issue. Edwards' collegiate production…read more

Recovers from fractured foot
Edwards has recovered from the broken fifth metatarsal that he suffered in February, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Edwards picked up the injury while training for the combine and was initially given a recovery timetable of 8-to-12 weeks. By early April, he was moving without a walking boot, and the Raiders later took him in the third round of the draft. Edwards and rookie first-rounder Henry Ruggs (thigh) join a wide receiver group composed of Tyrell Williams, Hunter Renfrow and a smattering of uninspiring vets. With Renfrow occupying the slot, Edwards' best bet to get reps likely will come on the outside…read more
