ALAMEDA, Calif.?Wide receiver/kick returner Jacoby Ford returned to practice after missing the past seven weeks with a sprained foot.
His return gives quarterback Carson Palmer six wide receivers at his disposal for the first time since Nov. 10.
The return of receiver Denarius Moore sparked the Raiders in last Sunday?s victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Raiders are hopeful that Ford?s expected return for the regular-season finale Sunday against the San Diego Chargers will give them another boost in a must-win game.
It?s unlikely that Ford will return kicks, given he has missed so much time. However, he gives the Raiders another deep threat and proven playmaker as they make a push for their first playoff berth in nine seasons.
Notes: RB Darren McFadden still has not been cleared to practice because of his sprained foot. He has missed 66 days with an injury that just won?t heal as well as hoped for, if not expected. At this point, it?s a long shot that McFadden will play Sunday. However, if the Raiders make the playoffs, there?s a realistic chance of McFadden's returning at close to full strength. The Raiders missed him a great deal the past eight games, yet it could turn out to be a blessing, of sorts, if he makes it back for the playoffs and is fresh after such a long layoff.
