Barber (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Barber was a healthy scratch for the previous three games heading into the Raiders' Week 8 bye, and that trend will continue Sunday. Josh Jacobs, Kenyan Drake and Jalen Richard will handle the backfield work for Las Vegas.

Barber is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
With Barber having been made a healthy scratch by the Raiders, Josh Jacobs, Kenyan Drake and Jalen Richard will handle the team's running back duties Sunday. Barber is off the fantasy radar unless injuries hit the team's backfield.

Barber (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Barber had shaken off a turf toe injury that had cost him the Week 5 tilt against the Bears by Wednesday of this past practice week, but he'll still take a seat Sunday. The availability of Josh Jacobs, Kenyan Drake and the recently activated Jalen Richard make Barber expendable against Denver and could serve to do the same in subsequent contests.

Barber (toe) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Barber managed just one limited showing last week as he contended with a mild case of turf toe. While he was listed as questionable for this past Sunday's game against the Bears, the Raiders ultimately included him on the inactive list. Now that he's back to logging all activity in practice, Barber suddenly is a part of a crowded backfield after the team activated Jalen Richard from IR for Week 5. All of Josh Jacobs, Kenyan Drake, Barber and Richard are the running backs available to the offense, meaning one of Barber or Richard could be candidates for healthy scratches moving forward.

Barber (toe) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
It's no surprise Barber is sitting out on a short week after picking up a mild turf toe injury last Monday against the Chargers. While Barber logs the first of what could be a few absences Sunday, the Raiders will ride Josh Jacobs, Kenyan Drake and Jalen Richard out of the backfield.

Barber (toe) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears after returning to practice Friday as a limited participant.
EDGE Analysis
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network previously suggested that Barber was dealing with a mild case of turf toe that could sideline him for a few weeks, but Barber's return to practice Friday suggests that may not be the case. Even so, he's uncertain to play Sunday, and if active, Barber won't necessarily be a big part of the Las Veags offense. Josh Jacobs doesn't have a Week 5 injury designation, and Kenyan Drake remains on hand in a complementary role.

Barber was diagnosed Wednesday with a mild case of turf toe, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
On the plus side, the report notes that Barber didn't fracture his foot, but the running back is still seeking opinions and undergoing additional tests to determine a course of action and timetable for his recovery. For now, Barber should be viewed as questionable, at best, for Sunday's game against the Bears, with Rapoport suggesting that the 27-year-old may end up missing a few weeks. If that's the case, Josh Jacobs would be in line to handle the bulk of the Raiders' early down work while Kenyan Drake serves as a complementary presence out of the backfield.

Barber hurt his foot during Monday's road game versus the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
Prior to his departure in the first quarter, Barber had one kick return for 25 yards, while Josh Jacobs logged both of the carries for three yards in his return from a two-game absence. If Barber is unable to get back into the game, the Raiders will be down to Jacobs and Kenyan Drake in the backfield.

Barber may have a reduced workload in Monday's road game against the Chargers with Josh Jacobs (ankle) active.
EDGE Analysis
With Jacobs available for the first time since Week 1, it remains to be seen how the backfield will break down Monday, but Barber could split early-down reps with Jacobs while Kenyan Drake retains much of the change-of-pace work. Still, Barber is active himself, so he may earn enough snaps to be a viable option versus a Chargers defense that has allowed an NFL-worst 5.5 yards per carry to running backs this season.
