The Las Vegas Raiders' offense has been far from the sharpest so far this NFL season, but All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams continues to shine.

Here's what to look for from him in fantasy football this week, as well as some of the Raiders' other key contributors:

Wide Receiver Davante Adams

Adams put up monster numbers in Week 3, finishing the loss to Pittsburgh with 172 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 13 receptions. That stat line gave him 42.2 PPR (points per reception) fantasy points and 29.2 non-PPR fantasy points on the week.

ESPN is anticipating Adams to have another impressive showing against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, as it projects him to finish with 24.49 PPR points and 16.2 non-PPR points.

Adams has 75.2 PPR and 50.2 non-PPR points through the first three weeks of the season.

Running Back Josh Jacobs

Jacobs still has not been able to come anywhere near the career season he had last year, although Week 3 was his best rushing performance yet.

The reigning NFL rushing champion posted 62 rushing yards and 18 receiving yards against Pittsburgh, good enough for 11.0 PPR points and 8.0 non-PPR points. 

Jacobs is projected by ESPN to end up with 15.7 PPR points and 11.9 non-PPR points in Week 4.

Wide receiver Jakobi Meyers

Meyers came back strong this last weekend after missing Week 2 because of a concussion. He registered 85 receiving yards, which earned him 15.5 PPR points and 8.5 non-PPR points.

Meyers is projected by ESPN to record 14.6 PPR points and 9.3 non-PPR points on Sunday.

Kicker Daniel Carlson

Carlson yet again was not called upon often in Week 3, as he kicked only one short-distance field goal and one extra point. He finished with just 4.0 PPR and non-PPR points.

ESPN projects Carlson to total 8.1 PPR and non-PPR points in Week 4.

The Silver and Black return to the road this week in Inglewood, Calif., to play the Los Angeles Chargers (1-2) on Sunday, Oct. 1, at 4:05 p.m. EDT/1:05 p.m. PDT.
