Raiders TE Brock Bowers caught all four of his targets for 63 yards and two touchdowns, and he made a ridiculous one-handed grab on his second score.
| Footballguys view: Bowers' 22.3 points in the loss to the Chargers led all tight ends through the late window on Sunday. As ESPN's Matt Bowen notes, the Raiders get a tough matchup in Week 14 versus the Denver defense, but Bowers will still be a top-5 play due to his route running and matchup traits under interim play caller Greg Olson. |

The Raiders have named their new offensive play-caller. Head coach Pete Carroll announced on Monday that quarterbacks coach Greg Olson will take on the role for the rest of the season.
| Footballguys view: The Raiders fired offensive coordinator Chip Kelly after Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns. This will not be Olson's first stint calling the offensive plays for the Raiders. He was the team's offensive coordinator in 2013 and 2014 and had another run in that job from 2018 to 2021. He's also been a coordinator with the Lions, Rams, Buccaneers, and Jaguars at points over the last two decades. The Raiders rank 31st in the league in points scored, so there's work to do here. |
Las Vegas Raiders TE Michael Mayer (ankle) suffered an ankle injury in the second quarter of the team's Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns and did not return.

Las Vegas Raiders offensive coordinator Chip Kelly was fired following the team's Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Link to storyThe reeling Las Vegas Raiders fired offensive coordinator Chip Kelly on Sunday, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter, making the move just 10 games into his first season with the organization.
| Footballguys view: Kelly's firing came after Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns, which dropped the Raiders to 2-9 on the season. It's the second shakeup to the staff of first-year coach Pete Carroll this season. The Raiders fired special teams coordinator Tom McMahon on Nov. 7. The Raiders traded for Geno Smith, drafted Ashton Jeanty in the first round, had Brock Bowers returning, made Kelly the NFL's highest-paid coordinator, and their offense has struggled. They have scored fewer than 10 points in four games -- the most in the NFL. We'll have more on this situation when the team announces a replacement. |

Raiders TE Michael Mayer suffered an apparent ankle injury and had to leave Sunday's loss to the Browns. After the game, Raiders coach Pete Carroll said Mayer has a sprained ankle.
| Footballguys view: Mayer has been playing a significant role in a Vegas offense heavy on 2-TE sets. We'll see about the severity of this injury in coming days. The Raiders play the Chargers in Week 13. |

Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty carried the ball 17 times for 50 yards and caught all eight of his targets for 58 receiving yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com suggested, Jeanty was the lone bright spot on offense for the Raiders on Sunday, scoring the team's only touchdown in another disappointing outcome for the club. Of more immediate concern, the rookie running back suffered an ankle injury late in the fourth quarter. He did not return. The Raiders face the Chargers in Week 13. An absence would leave the Raiders with Raheem Mostert, Dylan Laube, and Zamir White at the position. |
