Waller a true gametime decision

Las Vegas TE DARREN WALLER was downgraded to questionable on Saturday -- never a good sign -- as nagging knee and ankle injuries reportedly have him feeling less than great ahead of the Raiders' Week 8 bye. Ordinarily we would expect him to play, as he was not included on Friday's final injury report of the week at all. But the bye complicates matters, as holding him out today would seem to give Waller a better chance of returning at or close to 100 percent in Week 9. The Raiders kick off in the late afternoon window, and no final decision will be made until pregame warmups. Try to add an alternative with at least as late a start time, just in case.
