Murray wore a walking boot for a few days last week but has not been seen in it this week.The Raiders averaged 148.3 rushing yards through the first three weeks of the season but have not been as effective over the last two games. They had just 62 rushing yards against the Ravens and were held to 89 yards by the San Diego Chargers last week while Murray sat out.Murray will be a spectator again on Sunday when Oakland tries to maintain its hold on first place in the AFC West.We have that next-man-up mentality, Raiders fullback Jamize Olawale said Friday.

Whether its wind or rain, snow, whatever it might be, the conditions, we try to educate ourselves, educate our guys, but sometimes youre here and somewhere else theyre getting weather and you cant really prepare in it. So today was great because this is likely to be what it is Sunday, so we got to prepare in it, which was outstanding for us.The Raiders will also be without right tackle Menelik Watson for a third straight game because of a calf injury. Rookie Vadal Alexander started the previous two games in place of Watson but has been sidelined this week by an ankle injury and is also out.Austin Howard, who has been nursing a sore ankle, is expected to start at right tackle against the Chiefs.Game notes Safety Nate Allen (quad), guard Jon Feliciano (calf), running back Taiwan Jones (knee), tackle Matt McCants (knee), linebacker Malcolm Smith (quad) and tight end Clive Walford (knee) were limited and are questionable.----Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Air Max 200 France .

Banister asked for a replay review, which showed Rosarios foot just briefly lost contact with the bag while 2B Rougned Odor was still applying a tag. The safe call was overturned for the second out, and Suzuki then had what was an inning-ending flyball instead of a likely sac fly to leave Grossman stranded at third base.SHORT HOPSVargas had his third homer in six games since being called up July 4. ...
