The Oakland Raiders have placed cornerback Gareon Conley on injured reserve, a league source told ESPN's Field Yates.

Conley, the team's first-round pick in the 2017 draft, has battled a shin injury this season.

He has played just two games this season, recording a pass defensed and seven tackles.

Conley played well in his NFL debut, against the New York Jets in Week 2, knocking down a deep ball near the end zone. He appeared gimpy the next week, though, at Washington, and has been a spectator since.

A projected top-10 pick, he fell to the Raiders at No.
