Raiders | Taiwan Jones takes first-team reps

Oakland Raiders RB Taiwan Jones took the first-team repetitions at practice Wednesday, Nov. 7, with both RBs Darren McFadden (ankle) and Mike Goodson (ankle) sidelined. Jones has been limited with knee, ribs and hamstring issues, but head coach Dennis Allen expects him to step up and play with the injuries to their other runners. "I feel like I've been waiting forever (for Jones to play a bigger role). I can't wait. He does amazing things in practice and he's by far the fastest person on the field and he will be the fastest person on the field on Sunday. And not that you want to see guys get banged up, but I'm excited about the opportunity he's getting," QB Carson Palmer said.
