Going into Sunday's game, the Raiders were down a starting cornerback. Nate Hobbs was sidelined with an ankle injury. He was replaced at slot corner by Darnay Holmes. But very quickly the situation became much worse.
In the second moment of the game, Jakorian Bennett had to miss the game due to a shoulder injury and did not return. He was replaced by DeCamerion Richardson, leaving Jack Jones as the only starter.
Then Jones left the game for a while and initiated what brought in Sam Webb, who was the only remaining cornerback on the roster. And for a while, the Raiders fielded not just three backup corners, but their ONLY available corners.
These three reserves were on the field together when the Raiders gave up the wide-open 57-yard touchdown catch to Jonnu Smith that gave the Dolphins the win.
If you're looking for some good news, the offensive line stayed healthy.
The Raiders have struggled all season with keeping their offensive line healthy. That's why they fielded their sixth starting offense of the season on Sunday. And they didn't have much leeway if one of the starting five was unavailable.
So it was a huge relief to see the Oline playing wall-to-wall, a rare and welcome sight this season.
From left to right: LT Kolton Miller, LG Dylan Parham, C Jackson Powers-Johnson, RG Jordan Meredith and RT DJ Glaze all played 100% of the snaps in the game. This is only the fourth time this season this has happened.
