The Oakland Raiders will be without both Darren McFadden and Terrelle Pryor when they host the Tennessee Titans in their Week 12 matchup. They’ll also likely be without wide receiver Denarius Moore, who missed his third straight day of practice on Friday dealing with a shoulder injury.

Moore only caught two passes in the Raiders Week 11 victory over the Houston Texans, though backup quarterback Matt McGloin did toss six passes his way – one of which went for a touchdown.

Those targets will likely go elsewhere as according to Scott Bair, he suggests Moore is ‘out’:

"Denarius Moore is not at practice. He won’t play either."

Moore might be more of a fantasy football asset than a realistic asset as he’s only secured 37 of 74 targets this season, but regardless it’s a weapon the Raiders seemingly will be without.

It’s expected that Andre Holmes will draw the start in Moore’s place, assuming he’s unable to play while Rod Streater will also see an increase in playing time.
