Raiders’ Benson Mayowa, J.J. Nelson inactive vs. Colts

INDIANAPOLIS — The Raiders will go into their Week 4 game against the Indianapolis Colts Sunday without their sack leader as well as the speed receiver they are counting on to open up the offense.

Defensive end Benson Mayowa, was listed as a full participant in practice Friday after being limited with a knee injury the previous day, was inactive against the Colts, as was wide receiver J.J. Nelson.

Nelson had an ankle injury that kept him out of a Week 2 game against Kansas City but was not on the injury report this week.

Mayowa leads the Raiders with 3 1/2 of the seven sacks they have as a team.
