In an expected move and in what may be a sign of things to come in the final five games of the season, the Las Vegas Raiders have promoted running back Sincere McCormick to the 53-man roster from the practice squad.
To make room for McCormick, the Raiders placed reserve wide receiver and special teamer DJ Turner on the injured reserve with a knee injury he suffered Friday in a loss at Kansas City. he would be eligible to return in Week 18 if healthy.
McCormick played in the past two games and flashed. He has 97 yards on 17 carries this season in his first NFL action.
