ALAMEDA — The Raiders took to the road for practice Thursday, boarding buses with a police escort to an off-site nearby indoor facility to stay out of the smoke caused by the destructive Paradise Camp Fire.
Doors to the facility and locker room were closed with signs warning players and support staff to keep them closed to minimize smoke inhalation.
Offensive coordinator Greg Olson acknowledged that any adjustments the Raiders must make for the natural disaster pale in comparison to those in the thick of the fight.
“Our hearts go out to all the people who lost lives and property, and certainly to all the first responders,” Olson said.
