The Raiders, already playing without MLB Rolando McClain, will also be without starting SS Tyvon Branch for the remainder of Sunday’s game against the Chiefs.
The team announced during the third quarter that Branch suffered a concussion.
Branch was injured while making a tackle on kick coverage during the third quarter when he launched himself at the ball carrier and appeared to take a shot on the side of his helmet. He was able to leave the field under his own power, but he won’t be back on it the rest of the game.
