Highlights

The Raiders came to play on Monday night, proving that they can win games without the star wide receiver who never really wanted to be a part of the team. Oakland got the ball to start off the game, and came out firing, as quarterback Derek Carr looked to be on a mission early on.

New tight end target Darren Waller made some big plays on the  Raiders opening drive.
