Trent Brown (Doubtful)
Trent Brown has been a large figure in paving the way for the Oakland running attack and helping keep Derek Carr upright, but after suffering a calf injury during this week’s practice he’s been sidelined as of late. Gruden announced he will travel with the team to Green Bay and see if he can play, but his game status remains up in the air.
If Brown is scratched, Gruden mentioned they will use a rotation of Brandon Parker and David Sharpe at right tackle.
Gabe Jackson (Questionable)
The Raiders have been without Gabe Jackson (knee) since training camp, and as they inch closer to getting him back — the offensive line will receive a large boost. Jackson has been a staple on the Raiders offensive line since he came into the league in 2014, where he’s started 72 games over that span.
With the emergence of rookie running back Josh Jacobs, the return of Jackson will only elevate the running game into a greater role. Offensive coordinator Greg Olson told reporters at his Thursday press conference that he’s pretty confident that Jackson will be a full-go against the Packers.
Dwayne Harris (Questionable)
The Oakland special teams unit has been without Dwayne Harris since week 2 as he’s battled an ankle injury. Harris has been limited this week of practice, however, this could be the week he gets back on the field and returns kicks.
In his absence the Raiders have used a rotation of returners such as Jalen Richard, Hunter Renfrow and newly acquired Trevor Davis. Harris looks to be a potential game time decision for Sunday’s game.
