The Las Vegas Raiders are entering Week 10 with a clean bill of health as they prepare to host the Seattle Seahawks at Allegiant Stadium.
The team is set to have all 53 players on the active roster available for Sunday’s contest, which marks the start of the “Fernando Mendoza era” at quarterback, according to Silver and Black Pride.
Head coach Klint Kubiak confirmed that rookie right guard Trey Zuhn has officially cleared the league’s concussion protocol.
Zuhn, who was injured during a Week 9 loss to San Francisco, participated in limited practice sessions on Wednesday and Thursday before returning to full participation on Friday.
The third-round draft choice is now expected to make his third consecutive start for the team.
This development comes as the Raiders continue to benefit from an “injury advantage” that has persisted throughout the current season, as reported by Silver and Black Pride.
The situation in Las Vegas contrasts sharply with the visiting Seahawks, who face significant personnel challenges ahead of the 1:05 p.m. PT kickoff.
Seattle will be without starting quarterback Sam Darnold, forcing backup Drew Lock into the starting lineup for the game.
Additionally, the Seahawks will be missing star guard Quenton Nelson, while several other key players remain listed as questionable for the matchup.
The Raiders have maintained a consistent roster availability that has provided them with a strategic edge in nearly every game played this season, according to local outlets.
With Zuhn back in the lineup, the offensive line looks to provide stability for Mendoza in his first start as the primary signal-caller.
The team remains focused on leveraging their full roster depth to secure a victory at Allegiant Stadium this Sunday.
As the league enters the mid-point of the season, the Raiders stand out as one of the few teams avoiding the widespread attrition currently affecting most NFL franchises.
