ALAMEDA – Raiders quarterback Matt McGloin didn’t last long in Sunday’s loss to Denver. He injured his left (non-throwing) shoulder in the second quarter on an illegal hit from Broncos defensive end Jared Crick and didn’t return.
He had an MRI on Monday morning, and head coach Jack Del Rio said trainers didn’t tell him about any significant damage.
“I know he had an MRI, but usually if there’s a problem, they come up and let me know,” Del Rio said. “I think it’s just sore. I think it was banged pretty good and just sore.”
NFL Network reported Sunday night that McGloin's injury focuses on his trapezius muscle, which acts like a pinched nerve.
