HENDERSON, Nev. -- Las Vegas Raiders coach Pete Carroll was carefully optimistic when addressing the health of starting defensive tackle Christian Wilkins on Wednesday.
Following the team's OTA practice, Carroll called Wilkins' rehab from a Jones fracture in his left foot a "difficult" process, and the former Miami Dolphin is not ready to participate in practice yet. However, Carroll views time as their biggest ally in the situation.
Wilkins was in attendance at practice, but he did not have a helmet, nor did he participate in drills and the 11-on-11 period.
