Raiders RB Darren McFadden Still Not Practicing

Found November 21, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Darren McFadden,  Mike Goodson,  Marcel Reece
TEAMS: Oakland Raiders,  Cincinnati Bengals
Darren-mcfadden
Darren McFadden sat out practice yet again for the Oakland Raiders on Wednesday due to a nagging ankle injury, according to Steve Corkran of the Contra Costa Times. Mike Goodson also missed practice. There is no official word yet on the status of either running back for Week 12 against the Cincinnati Bengals, though the fact that neither one has yet to participate in practice since Week 9 does not inspire much optimism. Marcel Reece has paced the Raiders' ground game the last two weeks, and is expected to do so again if McFadden and Goodson sit. Source: SBNation.com Attached Thumbnails
