The Las Vegas Raiders practised without four starters as they prepared for Sunday night’s home game against the New York Jets (kickoff is at 5:20 p.m. PT).
Left tackle Kolton Miller (shoulder), cornerback Marcus Peters (knee), linebacker Divine Deablo (ankle), and fullback Jakob Johnson (concussion) are among those injured.
Deablo has been out the last two games. Johnson did not play in the Raiders’ Week 9 30-6 victory over the New York Giants. Miller and Peters were both in the game. Peters was injured in the fourth quarter, and Miller’s injury was not revealed until after the game.
Players frequently miss Wednesday practises and then play on the weekend. Interim Raiders coach Antonio Pierce said on Monday that Peters might have been able to finish the game.
Tackle Thayer Munford (neck) and linebacker Luke Masterson (concussion) both did not play against the Giants. Masterson practised fully and Munford was limited on Wednesday, indicating that, barring setbacks, they may play against the Jets.
Linebacker Robert Spillane practised fully and played against the Giants after fracturing his hand and requiring surgery the previous Monday in Detroit.
