Las Vegas Raiders

Kubiak added: “We’re expecting him to be ready.”

#Raiders WR Dont’e Thornton Jr. will not be activated for this week’s game vs. Rams.

#Raiders RB Mike Washington Jr. (foot/back) is questionable to play vs. the Rams. DT Tonka Hemingway (concussion) is good to go.

#Raiders DT Tonka Hemingway (concussion) just walked onto the practice field. He is no longer wearing a red non-contact jersey.

No sign of #Raiders RB Mike Washington Jr. (foot/back) at Friday’s practice.

Injuries continue to pile up for #Rams ahead of Sunday’s game.

This season, #Raiders are T-12th in pressures (80) and T-6th in sacks (15). However, Las Vegas ranks 29th in time to pressure (2.81 seconds) and 26th in run-stop (27.5%) and pass-rush win rate (44.6%). Las Vegas has the 6th-best run-stop win rate by edge defenders (26%), but 28th in run-stop win rate by interior linemen (25.9%).

#Raiders DC Rob Leonard on Treydan Stukes’ performance vs. Buffalo and his growth during the season: “He's just more confident. …I think the play-in and play-out consistency of even when the ball's not going to him, being in good position, and then when it is thrown to him, he's able to make the play.”

#Raiders are back on the practice field: - DT Tonka Hemingway (concussion) is back at practice, wearing a red non-contact uniform. - RB Mike Washington Jr. is not present during the media viewing period after being limited yesterday due to back and foot injuries. https://t.co/LyEqUWYdxh

How can #Raiders improve? HC Klint Kubiak insists the answer is to "close out games." A look into Las Vegas' second-half struggles, especially in the third quarter, where they have been outscored 24-3 in the last three games. https://t.co/jTFuPSC3ST

With #Raiders WR Dont'e Thornton Jr.'s 21-day activation period set to close this week, HC Klint Kubiak said there's a chance he will be activated this week. "He's going out there to practice to show us that he's ready, and he's been building up. He had a good first week, had a good second week. He's got his legs underneath him, and he's got to go show us something."

This is unacceptable. The students did nothing wrong.

Kubiak said competition will continue for starting spots among the offensive line.
