Raiders place Brandon Parker on season-ending IR

The Las Vegas Raiders were already dealing with a questionable offensive line situation heading into their regular-season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers.

That’s now been taken to a whole new level with news that right tackle Brandon Parker has been placed on season-ending injured reserve with a triceps injury. By making this move ahead of final cuts on Tuesday, Las Vegas will not be able to activate Parker at any point during the season. It’s somewhat surprising given that said injury didn’t initially seem to be serious.

A third-round pick of the Raiders’ previous brass back in 2018, Parker has stated 32 games over four seasons with the team. That included 13 a season ago. While he has not performed at an exceptionally high level, this injury will have wide-ranging ramifications for the Raiders.
