Last Thursday the Raiders lost Darren Waller for the second half with knee and back injuries. Wednesday they took the practice field without the Pro Bowl tight end as they prepare to face Washington this week.
Interim head coach Rich Bisaccia said on Monday that Waller is “Week-to-week” and could potentially miss this week.
“We’ll see where he is,” Bisaccia said of Waller. “I know he improved the first day, which happens a lot of the time. And I think now we are waiting to see how the rest of the week goes.”
