Raiders at Eagles, Week 16: Betting odds, weather forecast and injuries
By John Buhler
According to Saturday’s injury report, Oakland has two players that are out, one that is questionable and five that are questionable. Keep in mind that the Raiders put three players on Injured Reserve this week: left tackle Donald Penn, guard Jon Feliciano and tight end Clive Walford.
On Saturday, the Raiders ruled out defensive linemen Mario Edwards Jr. and Treyvon Hester. This will be the second straight game that Edwards will miss for the Silver and Black. The lone doubtful player is cornerback David Amerson, who hasn’t played in two months. He’s almost certainly going to miss the game. It would be shocking to see him play honestly.
The five players for the Raiders that are questionable are defensive lineman Denico Autry (hand/ankle), wide receiver Amari Cooper (ankle), center Rodney Hudson (ankle/illness), outside linebacker Bruce Irvin (concussion) and defensive back Keith McGill II (knee/illness).
Autry has been big in the pass rush of late. Irvin has really emerged as a star pass rusher in recent weeks. Amari Cooper has missed most of the last three games with a bad ankle. Rodney Hudson has battled through kidney stones. Let’s hope all of them can play this week.
