Thursday, Andre James returned to practice, which opens the question as to whether he could return to the starting lineup. But despite his return, Raiders head coach is opting to stick with his rookie Jackson Powers-Johnson at the position.
“We’ll stay with the same five,” said Pierce of the plans on the Oline. “Just continuity. Unless something drastic changes today, I don’t see a change in the lineup. They’ve been practicing well the last couple days together and we’ll keep it accordingly.”
Last week was the first game in a while the Raiders had the same starting five offensive linemen for the full game.
That starting five from left to right was LT Kolton Miller, LG Jordan Meredith, C JPJ, RG Dylan Parham, RT DJ Glaze.
This five could be the most promising for combination for the Raiders. It features the Raiders stalwart LT Miller, hopeful Meredith beside him, and rookie draft picks JPJ and Glaze in the mix as well.
