Raiders Hold Out Germaine Pratt for Non-Injury Reason as Carroll Says He Went With Other Guys

Carroll's brief explanation leaves Pratt's roster standing in doubt after a non-injury absence.

Overview

  • Linebacker Germaine Pratt did not travel to Indianapolis and was ruled out of Week 5 for a non-injury reason.
  • Following the 40-point concession to the Colts, Pete Carroll said the Raiders "decided to go with the other guys."
  • The team has issued no announcement of a suspension, release, or other discipline, keeping Pratt's near-term status unclear.
  • Pratt signed with Las Vegas in June after his release from Cincinnati and logged about 225 snaps over the first four games.
  • Recent analytics cited in coverage report subpar results for Pratt, including a 56.7 overall PFF grade and a 48.0 run-defense grade, prompting speculation about his role.
