Renfrow recorded seven receptions on nine targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow finished second on the team behind only Darren Waller in targets, though he was largely limited to short areas of the field. His only reception that went for double-digit yards came on the team's first offensive possession, which he also capped with a two-yard touchdown catch. Renfrow has now logged six or more receptions in five of eight games this season, including four of his last five contests.

Renfrow caught seven of eight targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 33-22 win over the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
The slot receiver led Las Vegas in catches and targets, although Foster Moreau topped him by two yards for the team lead in that category. Renfrow has been a rock-solid PPR option to begin the season, hauling in at least five passes in six of seven games heading into the Raiders' Week 8 bye.

Renfrow hauled in three of five targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 34-24 win over the Broncos. He also returned one punt for five yards.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow posted season lows across the board in targets, receptions and receiving yardage while quarterback Derek Carr attempted just 27 total passes, as the Raiders played with a substantial lead for much of the second half. Renfrow's offensive snap share still eclipsed the 50-percent mark, and he'll continue handling work out of the slot Week 7 when Las Vegas hosts the Eagles.

Renfrow secured six of eight targets for 56 yards in the Raiders' 20-9 loss to the Bears on Sunday. He also returned one punt for nine yards.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow paced the Raiders in receptions and receiving yards while co-leading the team in targets on the afternoon. With no fewer than five catches in any game and a second straight six-reception tally Sunday, Renfrow is well on pace to comfortably exceed the career-best total of 56 receptions he managed in 2020. The Clemson product will look to continue churning out the production in a Week 6 road battle versus the Broncos.

Renfrow caught six of eight targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 28-14 loss to the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow did his usual work on crisp routes underneath, with his touchdown coming on a 10-yard reception to begin the third quarter. That play gave Renfrow a score in consecutive contests, and the 25-year-old has now hauled in at least five passes in every game this season. Despite the presence of Pro-Bowl tight end Darren Waller and lightning-quick deep threat Henry Ruggs, Renfrow remains a security blanket for quarterback Derek Carr, consistently helping the Raiders move the sticks.

Renfrow caught five of six targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-28 overtime win over the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Six different Raiders caught between three and five passes and saw between five and seven targets as Derek Carr spread the ball around very effectively, but Renfrow was the only one of the group to get into the end zone as he fought his way through traffic after the catch on a 12-yard TD in the third quarter. The slot receiver has caught at least five passes in three straight games to begin the season, and Renfrow stands a good chance of extending that streak Week 4 in a potential barnburner against the Chargers on Monday night.

Renfrow caught five of seven targets for 57 yards Sunday in the Raiders' 26-17 win over the Steelers. He also returned two punts for 26 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow has yet to find the end zone this season, but he's recorded 11 receptions for 127 yards on 16 targets through two weeks despite logging less than 30 offensive snaps in Pittsburgh on Sunday. The slot receiver is pacing the Raiders' WR corps in targets, and quarterback Derek Carr could be forced to rely on Renfrow even more often against the Dolphins in Week 3 as cornerbacks Xavien Howard and Byron Jones attempt to blanket Henry Ruggs and Bryan Edwards on the outside.

Renfrow caught six of nine targets for 70 yards during Monday's 33-27 win over the Ravens.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow finished second on the team in targets and third on the team in receiving yards. He also drew two very critical pass interference calls on two different trips to the red zone. The savvy route runner continues to be a solid contributor, but his upside is limited due to his lack of big plays and red zone targets.

Renfrow did not play in Saturday's 17-16 preseason win over the Rams as the Raiders also were without fellow wide receivers Henry Ruggs, Bryan Edwards and John Brown.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow's role is essentially solidified as the Raiders' starting slot receiver ahead of Week 1, so the team hasn't risked his health while a majority of the first stringers have been kept to the sideline through two preseason contests. The Clemson product impressed in a joint practice with the Rams last Wednesday, however, reportedly torching All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey on multiple occasions as The Athletic's Vic Tafur noted.

WR FA
Renfrow caught three passes for 24 yards on seven targets in Sunday's 32-31 win over the Broncos, bringing his season totals to 56 catches for 656 yards and two scores on 77 targets in 16 games. He also added 265 yards on 23 punt returns with a long of 32.
EDGE Analysis
Renfrow's 56 receptions paced the Raiders wide receiver corps, which doesn't include tight end Darren Waller nearly doubling the slot man's totals with 107 catches (on 145 targets) of his own. Renfrow, who led the Raiders in red-zone receptions as a rookie, saw his touchdown count sliced in half this season, while the aforementioned Waller, as well as Nelson Agholor, combined for 17 trips to the end zone. With two years remaining on his rookie contract, Renfrow figures to continue his development in Las Vegas alongside Henry Ruggs and Bryan Edwards.
