There were 49 players who took the field for the Raiders Thursday night in Green Bay. Which means the team sat 41 players. Many of those players didn’t even make the flight to Winnipeg for the game. Many others were just there for moral support.
That means a couple things. One, most of the players who played in the game won’t be on the roster in a couple weeks. And two, it gave those players a chance to prove they deserve to be inside that bubble when it bursts.
Leading the way for the offense was Denver Kirkland who played every single snap.
