Football
The New Orleans Saints and Las Vegas Raiders finished their first practices on Thursday after taking Christmas day off to recover from Monday Night Football and celebrate with their families. Star wide receiver Chris Olave was a full participant and is considered day-by-day. Center Erik McCoy, who left Monday night’s game against the Green Bay Packers, was again absent with an elbow injury. McCoy’s backup Lucas Patrick was also absent with a knee injury. Running back Alvin Kamara remains absent as he tries to fight back to finish the season.
The Raiders added two players to Thursday’s injury report, rookie running back Dylan Laube and defensive end K’Lavon Chaisson.
