Overview
- Jackson Powers-Johnson has not practiced since leaving the previous game with a groin issue and head coach Klint Kubiak said the player would miss practice while the team monitors him.
- ESPN reporter Ryan McFadden posted that Powers-Johnson missed a second straight practice, increasing doubt about his ability to play on Sunday.
- If Powers-Johnson is sidelined the Raiders are likely to start Caleb Rogers, a 2025 third‑round pick who would plug into the line between Tyler Linderbaum and DJ Glaze.
- Kansas City’s strong pass-rush and run-stop metrics mean losing a starting guard could hurt Las Vegas’s ability to protect the quarterback and run the ball effectively.
- The team’s practice reports this week will determine the final decision and could force quick game‑plan changes that affect play calling, snap counts, and short‑term development for Rogers.
