Raiders place running back Jalen Richard on COVID list

The Las Vegas Raiders added yet another player to the NFL’s reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday as they put backup running back and returner Jalen Richard on the list.

It is not known if Richard tested positive or is a close contact of someone who did test positive for the coronavirus. Still, Richard is likely out for Sunday’s season finale at the Denver Broncos. Theo Riddick will probably take his place behind starter Josh Jacobs and Devontae Booker. Richard is the 34th player the Raiders put on the COVID list this season, which is the third most in the NFL.
