Brock Bowers - Limited practice Wednesday Bowers (foot) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Impact Per Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com, coach Antonio Pierce noted before practice that Bowers would be "ready to go," and despite his listed limitations Wednesday, the rookie tight end is trending toward being available for Sunday's season opener against the Chargers. Bowers now has two more chances to log a full practice session prior to the announcement of his team's final injury report ahead of Week 1 action.

Davante Adams - Good to go Adams (undisclosed) does not appear on the Raiders' Week 1 injury report.
Impact Adams dealt with a minor unspecified issue last month, per Tashan Reed of The Athletic, but Wednesday's injury report confirms that wideout carries no injury concerns ahead of Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Chargers. The 31-year-old remains entrenched as the Raiders' top WR target, a role that yielded Adams a 103/1,144/8 receiving line in 17 regular-season contest in 2023. Looking ahead, another high-volume campaign should be in store for Adams, who will be catching passes from new starting QB Gardner Minshew.

Brock Bowers - Returning to practice Bowers (foot) is returning to practice Wednesday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

The extent of his practice participation will be revealed Wednesday afternoon when the Raiders release their first official injury report of the season, but coach Antonio Pierce said Bowers will be "ready to go," per Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com.
