Inactives: Thorpe, Hayden available; Chiefs missing Houston

Share

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Raiders have a full compliment of cornerbacks for Sunday’s season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs. Neiko Thorpe is ready to play after missing the team's last two games. DJ Hayden will also go after an ankle injury slowed him down during practice this week.

It will be interesting to see who plays more as the No. 3 cornerback. Hayden lost that job to Thorpe last month, but neither player has fared particularly well.

The Chiefs have a pair of dynamic edge rushers dealing with injury issues. Only one will play. Tamba Hali is a go despite being questionable earlier in the week. Justin Houston received the same designation, but will miss yet another game with a hyperextended knee.

That should make life a little easier on a seemingly tired Raiders offensive line that has struggled some after the loss of right tackle Austin Howard.
