Hobbs (ankle) is clear to play against the Falcons on Monday night, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Hobbs is set to return from a four-game absence caused by an ankle injury. The fourth-year defender began this week with a pair of limited practice sessions before participating in full Saturday to clear the way for his return. With Hobbs set to suit up Monday, Darnay Holmes will likely return to a rotational role.
Hobbs (ankle) was limited in Thursday's practice. Hobbs has missed the Raiders' last four contests after he was injured in Week 9 versus Cincinnati. The limited practice to start the week gives him a chance to suit up Monday night against the Falcons.
Hobbs (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers. Hobbs has yet to return to practice since sustaining an ankle injury in Las Vegas' Week 9 loss to the Bengals, and he's now in line to miss his fourth consecutive game Sunday. Expect Darnay Holmes to continue serving as the Raiders' top slot cornerback until Hobbs recovers.
Hobbs (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Chiefs, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Hobbs will miss his third consecutive contest after he was initially injured in Week 9 against the Bengals. Decamerion Richardson, Jack Jones and Darnay Holmes should continue to handle cornerback duties this week against Kansas City.
Hobbs (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Hobbs was injured in Week 9 against the Bengals and will miss his second consecutive contest. Decamerion Richardson, Jack Jones and Darnay Holmes paced the Raiders' cornerbacks in playing time last Sunday against Miami.
Head coach Antonio Pierce told reporters that Hobbs (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports. The 25-year-old cornerback was sidelined for the Raiders' Week 11 loss to the Dolphins after sustaining an ankle injury the week prior, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he might be at risk of missing additional time. If Hobbs cannot upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss his second consecutive game in the Week 12 matchup against the Broncos.
Hobbs (ankle) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Miami. Hobbs was carted off the field due to an ankle injury in Week 8 against the Bengals. Even with the extra rest thanks to the Raiders' Week 10 bye, the 2021 fifth-round pick was unable to practice all week, and his next chance to play will be Week 12 against the Broncos on Sunday, Nov. 24. With Hobbs sidelined Sunday, Darnay Holmes and Decamerion Richardson are candidates to start at nickel corner.
Hobbs (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports. The Illinois product was carted to the locker room after sustaining an ankle injury in Las Vegas' Week 9 loss to Cincinnati, so it's no surprise that he's missing Wednesday's practice. If Hobbs is unable to practice in at least a limited fashion either Thursday or Friday, expect Darnay Holmes and Decamerion Richardson to see increased work with the Raiders' first-team defense in Week 11's matchup against the Dolphins.
Hobbs (ankle) will not return to Sunday's game versus the Bengals. No surprise here, as Hobbs was carted to the locker room. In his absence, Decamerion Richardson and Darnay Holmes are candidates to fill in at slot cornerback.
