The Oakland Raiders are getting torched by Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles, and their chances of a miraculous comeback took a serious hit thanks to a hamstring injury to running back Darren McFadden.

McFadden went to the sideline and met with the team’s medical staff, before the Raiders announced that he will not return for the game.

The Raiders were playing catch up, so there weren’t going to be many opportunities for McFadden to make a play in the running game, but he would have been a nice outlet and check down receiver when there were no options down field.
