The Las Vegas Raiders’ offense got a big boost Saturday when superstar tight end Brock Bowers practice, an indication he is on track to play Monday night for the 1-0 Raiders against the 1-0 Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night at home.
Raiders coach Pete Carroll said Saturday that Bowers “looked terrific” in practice. He is listed as questionable to play against the Chargers. Barring a setback, the chances seem solid that Bowers will be able to play.
Bowers missed Thursday and Friday’s practices after hurting his knee in a 20-13 victory at the New England Patriots on Sunday. While Bowers is track to play Monday, starting guard Jackson Powers-Johnson is out for Monday night as he missed his second straight day of practice Saturday. He was listed Friday on the injury list with a concussion that he apparently suffered at practice Thursday. He was ruled out later Saturday on the injury report.
Alex Cappa will start in Powers-Johnson’s place. Linebacker Elandon Roberts practiced Saturday for the second straight day after missing practice Thursday. He is not on the injury list and will play Monday.
