Oakland Raiders running back’s Darren McFadden and Mike Goodson both suffered high ankle sprains during Sunday’s loss to the Buccaneers.

Via Silver and Black Daily  |  November 08, 2012
What a heartbreaking loss for the Raider Nation. The Oakland Raiders were able to score 22 points in the fourth quarter, including 15 unanswered, to be one field-goal away from tying the scoreboard on what would have been an incredible comeback.
