Entering Week 15, the Raiders do not have a very healthy roster. They are missing multiple key defenders due to concussions and other important starters like Clelin Ferrell and Maliek Collins will likely miss their upcoming game against the Chargers.
The Raiders were dealt another blow on Tuesday as the team put rookie receiver Henry Ruggs III on the COVID-19/reserve list. While it isn’t clear if he tested positive or was considered a close-contact of someone who did, he will miss the team’s upcoming game.
Raiders’ WR Henry Ruggs went on COVID reserve so he’s out for Thursday, per source.

Ruggs has 23 receptions on the season for 414 yards and two touchdowns. With the former Alabama star missing this game, look for more of Bryan Edwards and Zay Jones in his replacement. We will continue to update this story as more information becomes available.
