It looked like it was heading this way, but the Raiders will officially be without star RB Josh Jacobs today, setting up Zamir White to start again this week. White had a big Week 16 against the Kansas City Chiefs, rushing for 145 yards. The Raiders will also be without starting TE Michael Mayer and a primary rotational CB Tyler Hall.

The Colts got two pieces of good news on their injury report, as WR Michael Pittman Jr. and RT Braden Smith are set to return this week. But they also learned that they will officially be without starting CB Kenny Moore II. An already hurting secondary took another hit here, and now it'll be interesting to see what the Colts deploy without Moore II and Julian Blackmon, who has been placed on the IR.
