Raiders' Moore injures hamstring

Share

ALAMEDA -- Explosive receiver Denarius Moore injured his right hamstring during Tuesday's mandatory minicamp practice. And while he walked off the field under his own power, he did so gingerly."He's going to be fine," said coach Dennis Allen. "We'll evaluate it. Usually those things take a couple of weeks or so (to heal) so we'll see where he's at."As a rookie last season, Moore was a revelation for the Raiders. The fifth-round draft choice caught 33 passes for 618 yards. His five touchdown receptions led the team as did his 18.7-yards-per-catch average.Still, he missed three games late last year after suffering an anklefoot injury returning a punt at Minnesota in Game 10.Tuesday, though, Moore was running with the first-team offense, along with fellow wideout Darrius Heyward-Bey. Until Moore went down making a cut while running a route.
