Raiders' Kolton Miller Believed to Have High Ankle Sprain After Late-Game Injury, MRI Pending

The veteran left tackle is a core blocker whose potential multi-week absence would test Las Vegas’s line depth.

Overview

  • NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the injury is believed to be a high ankle sprain, with MRI results to confirm the diagnosis and guide a timetable.
  • Miller went down on a late rushing play, was carted off after not putting weight on his right leg, and was later seen on crutches.
  • Pete Carroll characterized the issue postgame as a sprained ankle, underscoring that the severity remains to be determined.
  • Backup Stone Forsythe replaced Miller for the final offensive snap before a stuffed run and a blocked 54-yard field goal sealed a 25-24 loss.
  • The team expects further evaluation this week to assess availability, a significant concern given Miller’s status as the line’s anchor.
