Who would have thought that the Oakland Raiders would have less drama than the San Francisco 49ers. The only news coming out of Oakland is a few roster moves and injuries. So here's the most interesting things going on in Raider land.
- The Raiders have cut kickoff/punt returner Yamon Figurs after he looked pretty bad in those duties against the Tennessee Titans. Head coach Tom Cable said that both Johnnie Lee Higgins and Jacoby Ford would take over those duties.
- Offensive linemen Robert Gallery and cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha sat out today's practice with injuries but it looks like both will play in Sunday's game along with running back Michael Bush who was back participating in practice.
- It's official, the Raiders first home game will be blacked out in the local markets. It's the first home opener to be blacked out since the 2004 season.
