ALAMEDA — The next man up at quarterback for the Raiders is DeShone Kizer.
The third-year player out of Notre Dame has jumped Mike Glennon on the depth chart and will suit up for his first regular season game as a Raider Sunday as the backup to Derek Carr against the Tennessee Titans at the Coliseum.
“I was informed the other day I’d be given an opportunity to jump in and help the team,” Kizer said Thursday following practice.
That doesn’t mean Kizer will play, given that Glennon has made only two appearances this season against Green Bay on Oct.
