#Raiders RB Peyton Barber, who has impressed filling in for Josh Jacobs, was diagnosed with mild turf toe, sources say. No fracture. He’s still seeking opinions and having tests, but sounds like a few weeks on the sidelines as of now.
Barber suffered a turf toe injury in Week 4, and he finished with just one carry for zero yards. It was a far cry from his performance in Week 3 vs. the Dolphins when he racked up 23 carries and five targets.
With Barber out of the picture, the coast is clear for Josh Jacobs to resume his role as the Raiders’ early-down running back.
