Back at practice Wednesday The Raiders designated Mariota (quadriceps) to return to from injured reserve Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Impact As expected, Mariota will return to practice this week, opening a 21-day window for him to be activated from injured reserve. It's unclear if the 27-year-old will be available for Sunday's game at Denver, but once he's deemed ready to go, he should supplant Nathan Peterman as Derek Carr's top backup.
