Raiders' Jackson Powers-Johnson Suffers Significant Ankle Injury, Expected to Miss Extended Time
Las Vegas Raiders right guard Jackson Powers-Johnson sustained a "legit" ankle injury in the second quarter of Thursday night's 10-7 loss to the Broncos, with Coach Pete Carroll stating he will be "out for a while." Powers-Johnson, a second-round pick who won the Rimington Trophy at Oregon and has become one of the NFL's top young interior linemen, went down blocking John Franklin-Myers and was carted off. His absence is a major blow to the Raiders' offense, with Alex Cappa stepping in at right guard.
