Raiders | Aidan O'Connell likely to get nod vs. Jags Fri Dec 20, 02:56 PM
Las Vegas Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) practiced in full for a third straight day on Friday, Dec. 20, and is expected to start in Week 16 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
| Footballguys view: "He looks like he's good to go," head coach Antonio Pierce said in his Friday press conference. "Yesterday, he had another good day, so he should be good to go on Sunday." O'Connell suffered a bone bruise in his knee during Las Vegas' Week 15 loss to Tampa Bay. Desmond Ridder started the Monday night loss to the Falcons. In six games this year, O'Connell has completed 63.2 percent of his passes for 899 yards with four touchdowns and three interceptions, and his presence under center would be comforting for fantasy managers invested in Brock Bowers and Jakobi Meyers. |

Raiders | Aidan O'Connell tracking toward Week 16 return Tue Dec 17, 02:09 PM
Las Vegas Raiders QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) is 'trending upwards to playing this week,' according to head coach Antonio Pierce.
| Footballguys view: O'Connell was scratched from the lineup on Monday night due to a knee injury, but he had been listed as questionable heading into the game. Desmond Ridder started on Monday and went 23-of-39 for 208 yards, a touchdown, and two interceptions in a 15-9 loss. O'Connell took over as the starter in Week 6 but injured his thumb the next week and missed four games before returning to make two more starts. We'll see if he can make it back to take on the Jaguars in Week 16. |

Updating a previous report, Las Vegas Raiders RB Sincere McCormick (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of the Week 15 game on Monday, Dec. 16, due to an unspecified ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: As The Sporting News noted, McCormick has seen increased work over the past few weeks and has made the most of his opportunity. In four games, McCormick has 32 carries for 175 yards going into the Monday night contest, and his 5.5 yards per carry is better than any Raiders running back to carry the ball this season. Before leaving against the Falcons, McCormick recorded seven carries for eight yards and two receptions for 17 yards. Alexander Mattison and Ameer Abdullah have been working in relief of McCormick. We'll watch for more his status in coming days. |

Raiders | Antonio Pierce not a given Thu Dec 12, 10:14 AM
Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce is not a given to be back as head coach of the Raiders after owner Mark Davis declined comment on Pierce's status.
| Footballguys view: Davis said, "I don't even want to talk about that right now." Pierce could easily be out after one season as the full-time head coach. They don't have a franchise quarterback, but they could be in line to select Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders in the 2025 NFL draft. Pierce has a strong relationship with Deion Sanders, but that might not be enough to keep him around. |
