The Raiders look to make it two straight wins this Sunday with an AFC matchup in Miami against the Dolphins. The Raiders improved to 1-and-2 on the season with a 26-24 victory at home against the Cleveland Browns. The Dolphins are 0-and-3 after last Sunday’s 31-28 loss on the road against the New York Jets. With [...]
Signs with the silver and black seem to be pointing towards Daunte Culpepper starting at QB Sunday when the Raiders travel to Florida to play the Dolphins. Starter Josh McCown missed practice on Wednesday with his foot injury, and some reports are stating he has a broken toe on his left foot. Coach Lane Kiffin [...]
The Raiders officially added JaMarcus Russell to their roster yesterday, adding to an already crowded list of quarterbacks wearing the “Silver and Black.” The addition of Russell, who recently signed the biggest rookie contract in NFL history, was expected to be the end for last year’s starter Andrew Walter, but the Raiders instead released cornerback Duane [...]
Tommy Kelly blocked Phil Dawson’s 40-yard field goal attempt with just three seconds remaining as the Raiders held off the Cleveland Browns, 26-24, at McAfee Coliseum. Taking a page from Mike Shannahan in last week’s heartbreaking loss to the Broncos, Raiders head coach Lane Kiffin decided to call a timeout just before Dawson nailed what would’ve [...]
The Raiders will look to take the air out of the ball this weekend when they host the suddenly high powered Cleveland Browns. It will be a lot easier to do that with a 100 percent LaMont Jordan, but it looks as if Jordan will be a bit banged up coming into the week three [...]
It looks as though Daunte Culpepper is expected to start at QB for the Raiders Sunday against the Broncos after Fridays practice saw Josh McCown leave early with a sore foot. McCown’s right foot was sprained in the first half of the season opening loss against the Lions and was not at practice Wednesday because of the [...]
Quarterback JaMarcus Russell hit the practice field Wednesday after signing a contract with the Raiders. Russell was drafted number-one overall in April, but the 22-year-old LSU standout remained a holdout through all of training camp and the exhibition season, as well as the team’s home opener on Sunday. Russell could earn as much as 68-million-dollars over [...]
Raiders QB Josh McCown did not participate in team drills in practice Wednesday because of an injured right index finger and a sprained right foot, and his starting Sunday’s game in Denver appears to be very much in doubt. The QB hurt his finger on the last play of Sunday’s loss to the Lions, [...]
Raiders quarterback Josh McCown has a cracked bone in his index finger on his throwing hand according to Adam Schefter of NFL Network. According to Schefter, McCown broke the bone on the last play of Sunday’s loss to the Lions. The Raiders are still working on the final language of the deal for first round [...]
