• Taysom Hill (rib)
• Cesar Ruiz (knee)
• Derek Carr (oblique)
• Will Harris (hamstring)
• Pete Werner (hamstring)

QUESTIONABLE

• Payton Turner (knee)
• Lucas Patrick (chest)
• Kendre Miller (hamstring)

Alvin Kamara (hip/hand), Rashid Shaheed (hip), Willie Gay Jr. (hand) do not carry injury designations going into Sunday. Shaheed told us on Thursday that he was alright and was going to play against the Bucs, and both he and Kamara were limited on Friday. As for Gay Jr., he was a full participant two days in a row, so that's a great indication for him. Dennis Allen said they're going to go all the way up to game time with Lucas Patrick, as he didn't practice at all this week.

When asked about if Kendre Miller would play this weekend, Dennis Allen smiled and said, 'We'll see what happens." Cesar Ruiz is making progress with his knee injury, but he's not ready. Allen did say that it wasn't anything structural with him.
