2024 Fantasy Outlook
Masterson played more than 35 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps during just one of the 16 games in which he made an appearance in 2023, but he still managed to post 27 tackles (17 solo), two forced fumbles and one pass defensed while otherwise spending a majority of his time on special teams. Robert Spillane and Divine Deablo figure to continue seeing most of the reps at linebacker for the Raiders in 2024, but Masterson should filter in periodically amidst a position unit devoid of much depth.

Lands on IR with knee injury
The Raiders placed Masterson (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Masterson popped up on the Raiders' injury report Wednesday with a knee injury, and he was ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos. However, the knee injury appears to be severe enough to warrant a stint on injured reserve. The 26-year-old linebacker will be forced to sit for at least the next four games, meaning the earliest he can return is Week 9 against the Bengals on Nov. 3. Amari Gainer, Amari Burney and Tommy Eichenberg are candidates to slide into the starting linebacker spot vacated by Masterson.
