HENDERSON, Nev. -- Las Vegas Raiders coach Josh McDaniels said Friday he does not "expect" defensive end Chandler Jones to play in Sunday's season opener at the Denver Broncos, which is no surprise given Jones' continued absence from the team and his since-deleted social media posts criticizing the team this week.
Jones, who posted on Instagram that he no longer wanted to play for Las Vegas before saying he would stop posting to social media if the team would let him play at Denver and also said the team sent a crisis response team to his house, has been listed as a nonparticipant on the Raiders' injury report this week due to "not injury-related/personal" reasons.
