Injury Report: Raiders vs. Packers
Las Vegas Raiders
The Raiders will be without several key players on offense and defense for their Week 9 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Quarterback Derek Carr (ankle) and running back Josh Jacobs (calf) are both listed as questionable, while wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) and tight end Darren Waller (back) have been ruled out.
Carr has been dealing with an ankle injury since Week 3, but he has played through the pain and has not missed a start. However, he is expected to be limited in practice this week, and his status for Sunday's game is uncertain.
Jacobs has also been battling a calf injury, but he is expected to be available for the Packers game. However, he may be limited in his carries, and the Raiders may opt to use more of a running back by committee approach.
Adams has been one of the Raiders' most consistent offensive players this season, but he is expected to miss the Packers game with a hamstring injury. His absence will be a big blow to the Raiders' passing attack, as he is Carr's favorite target.
Waller has also been a key contributor to the Raiders' offense this season, but he is expected to miss the Packers game with a back injury. His absence will be a blow to the Raiders' red-zone offense, as he is one of Carr's favorite targets in the end zone.
Green Bay Packers
The Packers will also be without several key players on offense and defense for their Week 9 matchup against the Raiders. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers (thumb) and wide receiver Allen Lazard (ankle) are both listed as questionable, while cornerback Jaire Alexander (groin) and safety Adrian Amos (concussion) have been ruled out.
Rodgers has been dealing with a thumb injury since Week 5, but he has played through the pain and has not missed a start. However, he is expected to be limited in practice this week, and his status for Sunday's game is uncertain.
Lazard has also been dealing with an ankle injury, but he is expected to be available for the Raiders game. However, he may be limited in his snaps, and the Packers may opt to use more of a wide receiver by committee approach.
Alexander has been one of the Packers' best defensive players this season, but he is expected to miss the Raiders game with a groin injury. His absence will be a big blow to the Packers' pass defense, as he is one of their best cover corners.
Amos has also been a key contributor to the Packers' defense this season, but he is expected to miss the Raiders game with a concussion. His absence will be a blow to the Packers' run defense, as he is one of their best tacklers.
