Week 17 Injury Aftermath

Oakland Raiders at Houston Texans -- Saturday, 4:35 p.m. EST

Raiders quarterback Matt McGloin, starting in place of the injured Derek Carr, left Sunday's game after suffering an injury to his trapezius, which is reportedly impairing him in a similar way to a pinched nerve. Though McGloin reportedly plans to be ready in time to face Houston, the Raiders are reportedly less optimistic and are preparing for the possibility that Connor Cook may have to start.
