Barber did not log an offensive snap in Sunday's 35-32 overtime win over the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
Barber's role was limited to special teams in the Week 18 thriller, while starter Josh Jacobs handled a full workload out of the backfield with 26 carries for 132 yards and a touchdown to go along with a pair of receptions. Barber wraps up his 2021 regular season with 55 total carries for 212 yards and two scores in 10 games. He also added 10 catches on 13 targets for 67 receiving yards. Expect the aforementioned Jacobs to maintain his workhorse role in a wild-card matchup against the Bengals on Saturday.

Barber rushed for three yards on six carries and caught both of his targets for nine yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Barber struggled to get anything going on the ground Sunday, but he still earned six more touches than fellow backup Jalen Richard despite logging two less offensive snaps. Meanwhile, starter Josh Jacobs totaled 80 yards and found the end zone as he projects to lead the backfield once again versus the Chargers in Week 18.

Barber rushed for 22 yards and a touchdown on five carries and he caught his only target for no gain in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Broncos.
EDGE Analysis
Barber finished Sunday's contest with 22 less carries than starter Josh Jacobs, but the former found the end zone early in the third quarter for the Raiders' only rushing score of the game. Barber once again worked ahead of fellow backup Jalen Richard, who picked up nine yards on two total touches. Nonetheless, expect Jacobs to retain his workhorse role Week 17 against the Colts.

Barber carried five times for 34 yards and brought in his only target for 12 yards in Monday's 16-14 win over the Browns.
EDGE Analysis
Barber operated as the No. 2 running back behind Josh Jacobs, but he played only 13 of the Raider's 69 offensive snaps. Meanwhile, fellow backup Jalen Richard logged 11 snaps in his return from the reserve/COVID-19 list. The near-even split between the two reserve backs limits the potential of both players to make a major fantasy impact while Jacobs operates as the clear-cut No. 1 option while Kenyan Drake (ankle) is out for the season.

Barber caught two of three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 48-9 loss to the Chiefs. He also added seven rushing yards on one carry.
EDGE Analysis
Barber was relatively uninvolved as the Raiders fell behind by 35 points in the first half of Sunday's tilt, resulting in a pass-heavy game script for quarterback Derek Carr as starting running back Josh Jacobs tallied single-digit rushing attempts. Barber's playing time should remain limited against the Browns in Week 15, and fellow backup Jalen Richard may return from the reserve/COVID-19 list soon.

Barber caught his only target for two yards in Sunday's 17-15 loss to Washington. He also returned one kickoff for 24 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Barber played just five offensive snaps behind starter Josh Jacobs, despite fellow reserve Jalen Richard's placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Fellow running back Kenyan Drake is slated to miss the rest of the season with a broken ankle, however, so Barber figures to remain active against Kansas City in Week 14.

Barber is active for Sunday's game against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Barber is back in uniform Sunday, with Jalen Richard on the reserve/COVID-19 list. However, Barber doesn't seem likely to handle many touches in the Raiders offense unless Josh Jacobs or Kenyan Drake suffer any injury setbacks in Week 13.

Barber is inactive for Thursday's game against the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
Barber is the odd man out Thursday, with Jalen Richard back in the mix and slated to handle change-of-pace work behind Josh Jacobs and Kenyan Drake.

Barber took his only carry for three yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Barber began the Raiders' opening drive with a three-yard rush in his first appearance since Week 4, but he did not see the field for the remainder of Sunday's contest despite Jalen Richard's (ribs) inactivity. Regardless of Richard's Week 12 availability in Dallas, Josh Jacobs and Kenyan Drake will continue to dominate touches out of the backfield.

Barber is not among the Raiders' inactives for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Barber will thus re-enter the Raiders' backfield mix with change-of-pace option Jalen Richard (ribs) inactive, but he'll presumably work behind Josh Jacobs and Kenyan Drake in Week 11.
