Full Injury Report: The Usual Suspects
This week in the latest news regarding the saga that is the Oakland Raiders’ injury report, there is very little “news” to report. Despite the fact that the team has had an extra week to recover from their ailments, there seems to be little progress on the injury front for the three players that are out again this week. Here is your Week 6 report. Also, you will note that Tommy Kelly is listed as “questionable” due to a sore foot. Don’t pay any attention to that. Dennis Allen confirmed that Kelly will be out on the field on Sunday. Also, since Spencer is out once again, that means that Michael Huff will be making yet another start at cornerback.

On the Atlanta Falcons’ side of the ball, you won’t see very many injuries to really worry about. The team has a couple of backups that have been ruled out, but the biggest concern is LB Stephen Nicholas. He’s nursing a bad ankle, and is listed as questionable. For a team that is struggling against the run, averaging over 5 yards per carry, losing any starting linebacker could spell big trouble. We will watch the game time wire to see if he’s left off the active players list on Sunday morning.
