Gradkowski doubtful for Raiders' next game (4:19)

   Raiders quarterback Bruce Gradkowski has injuries to both knees that are expected to sideline him Sunday, although coach Tom Cable said on Monday that he wouldn’t know Gradkowski’s status until midweek.

   Even if he somehow managed to play, Gradkowski would lose some effectiveness because his mobility was key behind the Raiders’ crumbling offensive line. Oakland gave up eight sacks against Washington – two were absorbed by Gradkowski and six more by JaMarcus Russell in the second half.

   In an interesting twist, Cable didn’t commit to Russell after the Redskins game should Gradkowski not be able to play, saying only that he would do “what’s best for this team.”

   Time for Charlie Frye to dust off the old chicken wing and get in some game action?
