Left tackle Kolton Miller, who is sitting out his second straight game with a shoulder injury, and center Andre James, who is out with an ankle injury, also are inactive against the Chargers.
The other inactives for the Raiders are linebacker Malik Reed, defensive linemen Byron Young and Nesta Jade Silvera, and quarterback Brian Hoyer, who will be the Raiders’ emergency quarterback.
