It looks like the Chargers will be without running back Ryan Matthews on Monday night. Matthews, who is recovering from a broken clavicle, has been participating in individual drills without contact, but is not ready for game action. Ronnie Brown is expected to see most of the carries in his place.
The Raiders will lean on running back Darren McFadden, who should have his way with a questionable Chargers' run defense. Quarterback Carson Palmer had a rough preseason, throwing four interceptions and no touchdowns while completing just 58.9 percent of his passes.
Monday’s kickoff is slated for 10:15 p.m. ET and the game will be televised on ESPN.
