Raiders Lose Key Offensive Linemen Ahead of Cowboys Clash
18 Nov
Summary
- Left tackle Kolton Miller out with high-ankle sprain and hairline fracture
- Guard Jackson Powers-Johnson on IR, may miss rest of season
- Raiders coach expects Miller to return at some point

As the Las Vegas Raiders prepare to take on the Dallas Cowboys on Monday, November 18th, 2025, they will be missing two key members of their offensive line. Left tackle Kolton Miller and guard Jackson Powers-Johnson have both been sidelined due to ankle injuries.
Miller, who has been out since Week 4, is dealing with a high-ankle sprain and a hairline fracture. He was placed on injured reserve ahead of Week 5, making him eligible to return as early as Week 10. However, with the current timeline, Miller is expected to miss around six to eight weeks, meaning he could potentially return in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, Powers-Johnson, who last played in Week 10, has been placed on injured reserve and is required to miss at least four games. Unfortunately, there are concerns that his ankle injury could force him to miss the remainder of the season.
Despite these setbacks, Raiders head coach Pete Carroll remains hopeful that Miller will be back at some point. "Yeah, I do," Carroll said when asked if he expects Miller to return. "He's getting around okay, and everything's pointing towards that."
The absence of these two starting offensive linemen will undoubtedly be a challenge for the Raiders as they face the Cowboys on Monday night. However, the team will need to find a way to overcome these injuries and maintain their offensive production if they hope to secure a victory.
