Raiders continue to play waiting game with Mario Edwards Jr.

SAN FRANCISCO — The Raiders are continuing to play the waiting game on the significant neck injury suffered by rookie defensive lineman Mario Edwards Jr.

“He’s got to have some series of test that he’s going to have to go over here in the next month or so,” Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie said Tuesday. “Once we find out that, we’ll have some more answers. But right now, it’s still the same. We just don’t know.”

Edwards, the Raiders’ second-round pick who was having a strong debut season, was injured Dec. 20 against the Green Bay Packers and missed the final two games.
