“The Raiders are gearing up for their highly anticipated Christmas Day matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, and it seems like they may receive a boost with the return of two key offensive players. Interim head coach, Antonio Pierce, revealed that running back Josh Jacobs and left tackle Kolton Miller are currently in the process of coming back from their injuries and he’s optimistic that they’ll be able to take the field.
During a recent press conference, Pierce expressed confidence in Jacobs’ availability for the game, stating, “If I had to be a betting man, I would think he’ll play this game.” He added that the same applies to Miller. The significance of this matchup, coupled with their desire to be in the thick of the action, is driving their determination to make their return.
Jacobs was sidelined in the Raiders’ impressive 63-21 victory over the Chargers last Thursday due to a quad injury. Throughout the week, he was unable to participate in any practice sessions. On the other hand, Miller has been absent from the lineup since their loss to the Chiefs on November 26, as he has been nursing a shoulder injury.
As the game draws closer, fans eagerly await the Raiders’ first injury report of the week, which will be released on Thursday. Excitement fills the air as the team inches closer to potentially having their key offensive weapons back on the field for this crucial Christmas Day showdown.”
