PRO FOOTBALL / DAILY REPORT : RAIDERS : Injuries Affect Offensive Line

Veteran guard Max Montoya, who suffered a twisted ankle in Saturday’s exhibition loss to the Dallas Cowboys, is back in uniform and is expected to play in Friday’s exhibition with the Indianapolis Colts.

But starting left tackle Gerald Perry, who is suffering from a slightly torn triceps muscle, has sat out two games and will sit out at least one more.

His backup, Greg Skrepenak, suffered a dislocated joint in his left ankle in the Dallas game and will be sidelined for at least half the season.

In the meantime, reserves Rich Stephens and Steve Wright will get plenty of playing time.

Tight end Greg Harrell was cut by the Raiders for the second time in as many weeks.

This time, Harrell’s Raider ties were severed to make room for defensive lineman Joe Caspers, a rookie free agent from Nevada.

A week ago, Harrell was cut to free a roster spot for the return of holdout lineman Howie Long.
