Las Vegas Raiders CB Kyu Blu Kelly (knee) left the Week 14 game against the Denver Broncos due to what head coach Pete Carroll said is a 'serious' knee injury, although he didn't offer specifics.
Link to storyLas Vegas Raiders QB Geno Smith (hand, shoulder) left the Week 14 game against the Denver Broncos due to a right shoulder injury, as well as a cut to his right hand. Head coach Pete Carroll said Sunday, Dec. 7 that the shoulder 'locked up', but tests did not show any damage. He was 13-of-21 for 116 yards, one touchdown and four rushing yards before departing.
| Footballguys view: Smith and the Raiders had managed 131 yards of offense before his exit. He was 13-for-21 for 116 yards and a touchdown but had not led a scoring drive since the end of the first quarter. Smith has faced heavy criticism this season as the Raiders built a 2-10 record under Carroll entering the game. The Raiders recently fired offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, and the NFL fined Smith for flipping off spectators after a recent loss. Kenny Pickett replaced Smith against the Broncos and would start against the Eagles in Week 15 if Smith isn't ready. |

Raiders TE Brock Bowers caught all four of his targets for 63 yards and two touchdowns, and he made a ridiculous one-handed grab on his second score.
| Footballguys view: Bowers' 22.3 points in the loss to the Chargers led all tight ends through the late window on Sunday. As ESPN's Matt Bowen notes, the Raiders get a tough matchup in Week 14 versus the Denver defense, but Bowers will still be a top-5 play due to his route running and matchup traits under interim play caller Greg Olson. |

The Raiders have named their new offensive play-caller. Head coach Pete Carroll announced on Monday that quarterbacks coach Greg Olson will take on the role for the rest of the season.
| Footballguys view: The Raiders fired offensive coordinator Chip Kelly after Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns. This will not be Olson's first stint calling the offensive plays for the Raiders. He was the team's offensive coordinator in 2013 and 2014 and had another run in that job from 2018 to 2021. He's also been a coordinator with the Lions, Rams, Buccaneers, and Jaguars at points over the last two decades. The Raiders rank 31st in the league in points scored, so there's work to do here. |
Las Vegas Raiders TE Michael Mayer (ankle) suffered an ankle injury in the second quarter of the team's Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns and did not return.
