HENDERSON, Nev. — The Las Vegas Raiders received encouraging news on Jimmy Garoppolo’s back injury. However coach Josh McDaniels said Monday he didn’t know if the quarterback would be healthy enough to play at Chicago on Sunday. Garoppolo was injured in Sunday’s 21-17 victory over the New England Patriots, and McDaniels said he was examined to see if “there was an internal issue.” “It seems like we dodged a bullet in that regard, so that’s good news,” McDaniels said.
” If Garoppolo doesn’t play against the Bears, McDaniels can turn to Brian Hoyer or Aidan O’Connell. Hoyer, a 15-year veteran, came off the bench Sunday to throw for 102 yards on 6-of-10 passing. O’Connell is a rookie who was drafted in the fourth round out of Purdue, and started Oct. 1 at the Los Angeles Chargers when Garoppolo missed that game because of a concussion.
