Monday, Las Vegas Raiders interim coach Rich Bisaccia was “optimistic” that star tight end Darren Waller would be able to practice Wednesday as the team started preparation for a must-win at the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
However, Wednesday came and Waller became the Raiders’ latest player to go on the NFL’s reserve/COVID-19 list. He is reportedly vaccinated, so he can get out of the protocol before Sunday’s game. But it’s not that simple in Waller’s case.
He hasn’t played since November 25 when he suffered a knee injury against the Dallas Cowboys.
