The Oakland Raiders and New England Patriots injury report continues to be a lengthy one. Most of these injuries have resulted in players labeled with the questionable status.
Among the questionable for the Raiders are Michael Huff and Matt Shaughnessy. Neither were able to practice on Sunday, which makes me skeptical that they will be able to go on Sunday. It is definitely a good sign that both were questionable though.
Especially Shaughnessy, whose shoulder injury has been shockingly un-discussed.
Among those ruled out for this game are Louis Murphy and Chris Johnson for the Raiders and TE Aaron Hernandez, T Sebastian Vollmer and DE Mike Wright.
The Raiders will definitely miss Johnson, whose shoes will likely be filled by a combination of Chimdi Chekwa and Joe Porter. The corners are going to be tested early and often in this one. Hernandez has been a huge target for Brady in the passing offense, but they certainly have enough weapons that his absence is nothing this offense can't overcome.
Another thing to note here is that G Logan Mankins was limited in practice again with an illness. His playing status has not yet been announced. I have no idea what this means. Although, you have to believe he will play. If not, that will be a huge loss for the Patriots.
