Darren McFadden unlikely to play Week 17

Raiders HC Hue Jackson confirmed that RB Darren McFadden (foot) is unlikely to play against the Chargers this weekend.  "As fast as Darren runs and as violent as Darren runs, you’ve got to make sure you’re healthy," Jackson said. "You can’t just go out there and wobble and run around and jog through it. You’ve got to be able to run through it, and he’s not ready yet."  McFadden will end up missing the final 9 games of the season with what sounds like a Lisfranc injury.  RB Michael Bush is a good bet for another 20+ touches in the season finale.
