Unlikely to play Week 4
Munford (knee) did not practice Friday and has been listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite the doubtful tag, head coach Antonio Pierce said Friday that Munford will not play Sunday. Munford was unable to practice all week due to a knee injury he sustained in the first quarter of the Raiders' Week 3 loss to the Panthers. Delmar Glaze took over for at right tackle after Munford was injured, and the former should hold that starting job for Sunday's game.

Apr 30, 2022
Picked up by Vegas
The Raiders selected Munford in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 238th overall.
ANALYSIS
Munford was a stalwart on the Ohio State offensive line for the last four seasons but a shaky combine sent his stock sliding. The 6-foot-5, 328-pounder made 34 starts at left tackle but kicked inside to guard as a senior while Nicholas Petit-Frere took over the blindside. Munford has the size and reach to play tackle, but the lack of athleticism could either force him inside to guard or keep him as a reserve tackle.
