Kenny Pickett - Makes team debut in garbage time Pickett completed two pass attempts for eight yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs.
Impact Pickett has served as the Raiders' backup quarterback for each of Las Vegas' first seven games but didn't get the chance to make his debut until halfway through the fourth quarter, when the Chiefs had already built a 31-point lead. The quarterback proceeded to fumble his first snap of the season, then went three-and-out on the Raiders' next drive before handing off to Dylan Laube on the team's ensuing possession as time expired. Though starter Geno Smith passed for just 67 yards before being pulled from the game in the fourth and now owns a 7:10 TD:INT through seven weeks, head coach Pete Carroll didn't hint in his postgame press conference that he was considering a change at quarterback moving forward. As such, Pickett tentatively looks set to remain in a backup role coming out of the Raiders' Week 8 bye.

Jakobi Meyers - Should be back after bye Raiders coach Jacobi Meyers said Monday that Meyers (knee/toe) and tight end Brock Bowers (knee) are both expected to return to action after the team's Week 8 bye, Ryan McFadden of...
Impact Meyers missed his first game of the season during Las Vegas' blowout 31-0 loss to the Chiefs in Week 7 while Bowers hasn't played since Week 4, but the Raiders anticipate having both pass-catchers back in the lineup versus Jacksonville on Sunday, Nov. 2 in Week 9. Trade rumors have also surrounded Meyers in recent weeks, and back in late August he in fact requested to be dealt elsewhere by Las Vegas. The team's Week 8 bye could provide a space for the Raiders to explore options on that front prior to the NFL's trade deadline on Nov. 4, but as long as he remains on the roster, Meyers projects to resume handling his usual starting role Week 9.

Omarr Norman-Lott - Sustains torn ACL Norman-Lott sustained a season-ending torn ACL in his right knee during Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders, Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Norman-Lott exited the Chiefs' Week 7 win in the third quarter due to a knee injury, which has now been revealed to be a torn ACL. The rookie defensive tackle from Tennessee had played just 70 defensive snaps through his first five NFL games, recording five total tackles, including 1.0 sacks. Now that he's expected to miss the remainder of Kansas City's 2025 campaign, expect Jerry Tillery to operate as the team's top reserve interior defensive lineman.
