The Oakland Raiders are preparing for their game agains the Detroit Lions this weekend as the NFL playoff picture comes into focus. The Raiders will likely be without starting running back Darren McFadden as he deals with a foot injury, but Thursday's injury report indicated better news for rookie wide receiver Denarius Moore.
Moore was limited on Thursday, according to the injury report, but Steve Corkran painted a better picture as far as Moore's status is concerned.
Moore is running around, catching passes and doing everything else that the other receivers are being asked to do. Assuming he doesn't suffer any setbacks today from the foot injury that sidelined him the past three games, he is expected to play Sunday.
Center Samson Satele (shoulder) is working with the starting offense, which bodes well for his playing Sunday. Wide receivers Chaz Schilens (foot) and Darrius Heyward-Bey (heel) appear fine and ready to roll Sunday, too.
