The Las Vegas Raiders made some roster moves ahead of their matchup with the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. If the Raiders win, their percentage to make the playoffs will get even higher.

On Wednesday, the Raiders' team's Twitter account tweeted out the moves.

We have signed TE Zach Gentry to the active roster. Additionally, we have placed TE Jesper Horsted on the Reserve/Injured List and waived T Justin Herron.

With Horsted going to IR, his season is pretty much over unless the Raiders make it to the AFC Championship; then, he could be activated if he is healthy. Mayer is beat up, and Hooper just hasn't been great, so the Raiders signing Gentry makes sense.
