For the first time in a month Raiders starting nickel corner Nate Hobbs practiced this week. He was limited all week with the ankle injury that had caused him to miss the past four games and is officially Questionable for the game.
Joining him among the Questionable is kicker Daniel Carlson who suffered a groin injury just prior to last week’s game in Chicago, causing him to miss a 41-yard field goal he normally makes with ease.
Officially OUT is starting weak side linebacker Divine Deablo.

Deablo will likely be replaced by Luke Masterson.
If Hobbs can’t go, he will once again be replaced at the nickel by either Amik Robertson or Tyler Hall. If Daniel Carlson can’t go he will be replaced by recent practice squad addition, James McCourt.
