He has seven explosive plays of 20 yards or more, including a long of 38, with 231 yards after the catch and 31 first-down conversions.

Why you should back the Raiders

With Minshew out, the Raiders are expected to turn to Aidan O’Connell at quarterback, if he is ready in time. He is coming off an injured thumb and will be designated to return from injured reserve. No matter what, others will need to step up their play. One of those players is the team’s first-round draft pick in tight end Brock Bowers. He leads the team with 74 receptions for 744 yards (10.1 average) and three touchdowns. He has eight plays of 20 or more yards, including a long of 57, and has 395 yards after the catch and has converted 38 first downs. In a 34-19 loss at Miami on Nov. 17, he caught 13 passes for 126 yards (9.7 average) and one touchdown. He also converted 10 first downs.

Defensive end Maxx Crosby continues to be a force on defense. In 10 games, he has registered 39 tackles, including 24 solo, with 6.5 sacks for 55 yards and 14 tackles for loss. He has also broken up four passes. In a 26-23 win at Baltimore on Sept. 15, he had six tackles, including five solo, with two sacks and one pass breakup. He had five tackles, including four solo, with two tackles for loss in Sunday’s loss to Denver.Ā See which team to pick here.
