Antonio Pierce: Aidan O'Connell "should be good to go" vs. Jaguars

It sounds like the Raiders should have quarterback Aidan O'Connell back for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

"He looks like he’s good to go," head coach Antonio Pierce said in his Friday press conference. "Yesterday, he had another good day, so he should be good to go on Sunday."

O'Connell suffered a bone bruise in his knee during Las Vegas' Week 15 loss to Tampa Bay. Desmond Ridder started the Monday night loss to the Falcons.

In six games this year, O’Connell has completed 63.2 percent of his passes for 899 yards with four touchdowns and three interceptions.

Pierce also noted that left guard Jordan Meredith (ankle) is not looking good to play, saying he’s doubtful. If that is the case, Jackson Powers-Johnson would move over to left guard, with Andre James starting at center.

Las Vegas’ full injury report with game statuses will be released later on Friday.
