He has scored one touchdown and played in each of the team's first 10 games. |

ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) -Oakland Raiders quarterback Jason Campbell insists he's not concerned about being benched in the middle of games, even though it's happened twice already this season. Coach Tom Cable isn't worried about the situation either, but stopped short of saying Campbell could quit looking over his shoulder. Campbell was pulled out of last week's loss to Pittsburgh in the third quarter and replaced by Bruce Gradkowski. It followed the benching of Campbell in Week 2, when Gradkowski took over |

The Broncos are 3-7, three games off the pace set by Kansas City in the division and two games behind both the Chargers and Oakland Raiders. But in spite of the dire straits, embattled head coach Josh McDaniels said he'll continue to resist calls to insert 2010 first-round draft pick Tim Tebow as the team's starting quarterback. "I'm not willing to go there," said McDaniels when asked a |

| (MySportsbook) - Plenty of parallels exist between the Miami Dolphins and Oakland Raiders, two teams that will face another at the Oakland Coliseum this Sunday in a Week 12 tilt that holds a great deal of significance for each. Both the Dolphins and Raiders enter this week's play with identical 5-5 records and are attempting to rebound from lopsided losses in their last games, and there are quarterback issues to sort out among the two sides as well. Miami's problems under center stem from injuries that knoc |

| Alameda, CA (MySportsbook) - The Oakland Raiders on Wednesday placed defensive end Trevor Scott on injured reserve and signed linebacker Jarvis Moss. Scott posted 23 tackles and 1 1/2 sacks in 10 games for Oakland this season. He was felled by a torn anterior cruciate ligament during last Sunday's loss in Pittsburgh. Moss spent the last three-plus seasons with Denver, but was released last week after recording only five tackles in nine games. The former first-round pick out of Florida notched 29 tackles and |

PITTSBURGH (AP) -Several Oakland Raiders players called it a sandpit. By the time the West Virginia-Pitt rivalry game kicks off, it might resemble the fabled Church Pew bunkers at nearby Oakmont Country Club. Large strips of sand were visible beneath Heinz Field's notoriously bad grass surface following Sunday's Raiders-Steelers game, especially the heavily used area at midfield between the 40-yard lines. While the field is covered, more than an inch of rain is predicted before the Backyard Brawl game o |

ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) -The Oakland Raiders might find it easier getting over last week's blowout loss to Pittsburgh than overcoming Trevor Scott's knee injury. Scott was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, leaving the Raiders minus one of their most productive and versatile players. The third-year defensive end, who tied for the team lead in sacks each of the last two seasons, was also a key member of Oakland's special teams before suffering a torn ACL while covering a punt against the Steelers.
