In the grand scheme, the Las Vegas Raiders received good medical news regarding the health of starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, coach Josh McDaniels said Monday morning.
McDaniels said tests at a local hospital Sunday showed that Garoppolo didn’t have any internal issues and that they “dodged a big bullet.”
“The prognosis is a lot better than it might otherwise have been,” McDaniels said.
Still, McDaniels said it is still to early to tell if Garoppolo will be able to play Sunday at the 1-5 Chicago Bears. McDaniels said Garoppolo is still going through medical tests on his back.
