Raiders’ RG Jackson Powers-Johnson Faces Ankle Injury Doubt
Raiders’ right guard, Jackson Powers-Johnson, is facing uncertainty due to an ankle injury. This occurred during the second quarter of the game against the Denver Broncos. The injury took place just two plays into the quarter, raising concerns for the team’s offensive line.
Injury Details
Powers-Johnson injured his left ankle while blocking John Franklin-Myers. The incident left him on the ground in significant pain. Medical staff assisted him off the field, and he spent time in the sideline medical tent before being carted away.
Replacement and Team Impact
Alex Cappa stepped in for Powers-Johnson at right guard. This is a considerable adjustment, especially since the Raiders are already without starting left tackle Kolton Miller.
Current Game Status
- Score: Raiders lead Broncos 7-0.
- Powers-Johnson’s Status: Questionable to return.
- Replacement: Alex Cappa.
- Other Injury: Kolton Miller is also unavailable.
The Raiders’ offensive line faces crucial challenges as they navigate these injuries during the game. The team’s ability to maintain its lead will depend heavily on this unit’s performance moving forward.
