HENDERSON, Nev. -- The Las Vegas Raiders placed veteran left guard Richie Incognito on injured reserve Saturday, ensuring the four-time Pro Bowler will miss at least the next three games.
Incognito, 38, had not practiced since injuring his right calf in a joint practice with the Los Angeles Rams on Aug. 19. And though the Raiders had held out hope he could return -- he had occupied a spot on the 53-man roster since -- Incognito's injury did not respond as hoped.
"I don't think we're being cautious," Raiders coach Jon Gruden said Friday, after the team ruled Incognito out of Las Vegas' game against the Miami Dolphins.
