Jackson Powers-Johnson, the starting right guard for the Las Vegas Raiders, was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a groin injury. Caleb Rogers will take his place. The Raiders had prepared both players throughout training camp and preseason as part of their strategy to handle potential injuries like this one. Coach Klint Kubiak stated that preparing Rogers extensively would help the entire offensive line, especially given the upcoming challenge against Kansas City's formidable defensive front, which has disrupted opposing offenses on 52.6% of rushes so far this season. This game is a crucial matchup between two undefeated teams in the AFC West division.
