Not much has been successful for the Raiders on defense this season, so it looks like Defensive Coordinator Paul Guenther is at the point of trying everyone and everything. He has a lot of young pieces to move around trying to find what works and Sunday he moved them around quite a bit.
Nicholas Morrow got the start saw a season-high 65 snaps (92%), the second most snaps among linebackers behind Tahir Whitehead. Meanwhile, previous starters Marquel Lee and Jason Cabinda saw just six snaps apiece on defense. We’ll have to wait for the coaches film to judge how Morrow performed overall, but he did tie for the team lead in tackles (7) with Whitehead.
