Jon Gruden: Raiders must be ‘realistic’ about chances of Kelechi Osemele, Gabe Jackson returning this season from ‘very legitimate’ injuries

Being without Kelechi Osemele for the Raiders game against the Steelers in week 14 didn’t prove to be a huge deal. Utility reserve Jon Feliciano stepped up and filled in admirably. Then Feliciano was lost to a knee injury. At the same time Gabe Jackson suffered an elbow injury. Being without Osemele, Jackson, and Feliciano proved to be too much. The Raiders offensive line was a sieve that sunk the Raiders.

This will continue to be a major problem over the final two games should Osemele and Jackson not make it back.
