Darren Waller Diagnosed With IT Band Strain, Unlikely to Miss Time

Raiders tight end Darren Waller was diagnosed with a strained left IT band and should not be expected to miss any time. The news is a sigh of relief, as initial video and analysis from Las Vegas' 36-33 Thanksgiving win leaned toward an MCL injury. The IT band runs from the hip down to the knee and can be the source of many ailments, but with good care, the 29-year-old should be good to go in 10 days for the Raiders Week 13 matchup with Washington.
