On Monday Night Football against the Green Bay Packers, the Las Vegas Raiders had something pop up that you may have noticed if you were watching too. Suddenly, they are missing Jermaine Eluemunor, their starting left tackle.

There was no injury update on him during the game or anything. He just came out, and his backup, Thayer Munford, came in. It was certainly a question that needed to be answered.

On Tuesday, when Josh McDaniels took the podium, it was the first question he was asked.

"Yeah, we looked at him [Eluemunor], and he got banged up a little bit," McDaniels told the media. "You know, Thayer [Munford] has played, obviously, before, and that was kind of the intent anyway. I thought he went in there and represented himself the right way."

I'm afraid I have to disagree with the last part because he gave up a very bad sack, one of three on the day for the team as a whole. Now, Eluemunor was doing decent for the little time he played.

Hopefully, he gets his injury situation figured out, and as the week progresses, we see if he is on the injury report or not.
