ALAMEDA, Calif. - Already down two starters due to season-ending injuries, the Oakland Raiders could be without cornerback Tarell Brown for Sundays game in Kansas City.Brown aggravated a foot injury and hurt his ankle while trying to break up a pass last week against San Francisco. He came out briefly then quickly returned and was able to finish the game.The veteran cornerback was held out of practice earlier this week and was limited in the teams light practice Friday. Brown is questionable to play against the Chiefs.It was a red zone day today and a short-yardage day so he was able to do whatever we needed him to do at this point, interim Oakland coach Tony Sparano said. We didnt ask him to do a whole lot but he was able to do enough.If Brown is held out, it would be a significant blow to the Raiders already thin defensive backfield.Safety Tyvon Branch has been out since Week 3 with a broken foot while cornerback Carlos Rogers joined him on the injured reserve list with a knee injury.Brown and safety Charles Woodson have been the two constants in Oaklands secondary. The two have started every game and are among the teams top tacklers.In Browns case, he has also been the Raiders most reliable player. He has taken all but eight of the teams 931 defensive snaps, including the three plays he sat out after getting hurt against the 49ers.Rookie TJ Carrie will start against Kansas City if Brown is held out.If T-Brown dont go, TJs going to be right in there, cornerback DJ Hayden said. Whoever gets called up, theyll be ready. I feel confident in our group, in everybody.Haydens progress this season has helped make up for the injuries.The 12th overall pick in 2013 who was beset by a variety of injuries during his rookie year, Hayden spent the first six weeks of this season on the physically unable to perform list after undergoing foot surgery during the off-season. He played in a reserve role his first two games back then inherited the starting left cornerback job when Rogers went down.Since then, Hayden has been on an upward climb. He has only one interception — coming in his first start of the year against Denvers Peyton Manning — and has graded out very well overall, according to ProFootballFocus.com.Hes right where he needs to go, and this week well see, Raiders defensive co-ordinator Jason Tarver said. We want him to stay in that passionate I can cover you, Im going to stay in my technique mode in another environment.Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie took a lot of heat when he drafted Hayden, who had suffered a near-fatal heart injury during his senior year in college. The criticism continued to build last year when Hayden went on injured reserve midway through the season.With Hayden finally showing signs of progress, that criticism has started to subside.Im comfortable, Hayden said. I feel like Im doing good. Im getting better each and every week. I just have to take care of the opportunities that come my way.Notes: One day after a heavy storm forced the team to move practice to a nearby indoor facility, the Raiders held Fridays workout on their own fields. Buses were on standby to move the team, just in case. ...

Now the Shockers could be in line for another leap in the national polls. Cleanthony Early scored 19 points, Ron Baker added 14 and fifth-ranked Wichita State stayed perfect with a 78-61 win over Drake. Wichita States latest win -- combined with an ugly home loss by No. 4 Villanova to Creighton during the week and No. 3 Michigan States home defeat against No. 21 Michigan on Saturday -- could put the Shockers (21-0, 8-0 MVC) in position to leapfrog both teams on Monday. Coach Gregg Marshall appeared to be stumping for his team with what seemed to be a bit of a jab at Michigan State (18-2) after the game. "Did the mighty Spartans lose again?" Marshall said as he left the podium following his postgame news conference. The Shockers will have to wait until March for Michigan State or whoever else might stand in their way at another Final Four appearance. For now, theyll have to settle for pounding on teams in the Valley. Drake was the latest to succumb to Wichita States acrobatic offence and suffocating defence. Nick Wiggins had 11 points for the visiting Shockers, who outscored Drake 28-15 to open the second half and turn a relatively close game into a rout. The Shockers have now won four straight by at least 15 points after an overtime scare at Missouri State two weeks ago. Aaron Hawley had 16 points to lead Drake (11-9, 2-6), which lost for the sixth time in seven games. "That team is extremely tough-minded," Drake coach Ray Giacoletti said. "Each possession offensively and defensively, they control their destiny. They dont splinter ever. We were not able to make them splinter." The Bulldogs had their moments against the Valleys top team, but Wichita State showed off its superior talent with a handful of game-defining plays. Baker answered a Drake 3 with a three-point play through traffic with 15:45 left, and that kicked off a pair of spurts that overwhelmed the Bulldoogs.dddddddddddd Chadrack Lufile scored inside, and Tekele Cottons floater put the Shockers ahead 52-35 with just over 13 minutes left. Early then soared through the paint to flush down an errant shot, and Wiggins three-point play capped an 11-0 run that made it 65-44. The Shockers outrebounded Drake 34-20 and held its leading scorer, Richard Carter, to six points. Its been six years since Drake caught the nations attention with a stunning surge to the Valley championship, the programs first in 37 seasons. The Bulldogs are on their third coach since that NCAA tournament run, with Giacoletti in his first season in Des Moines. Drake started the season 10-3 and whipped Evansville 94-66 in the league opener before slipping during the heart of its Valley schedule. But the Bulldogs, bolstered by a near-sellout crowd, did their best to push the Shockers early. They hit nine of their first 16 shots to stay as close as 30-26. But Baker found Cotton for a one-handed alley-oop that sent Wichita State into the break with a 37-29 lead. "I know Tekele Cotton pretty well. He can jump really high and he likes to dunk it," Baker said. "It was a really athletic play from him, which is no surprise." Cotton then opened the second half with another dunk and the Shockers were on their way to their eighth road win. The Shockers wont face a remaining schedule as tough as Michigan States or perhaps anyone else in a power league. But Marshall said his Shockers can play with anyone in the country. Wichita State next hosts Loyola and Evansville ahead of what could be its toughest test of the year, at 16-4 Indiana State on Feb. 5. "This is a very good basketball team. We dont have to apologize to anybody about our schedule," Marshall said. "Was it (former Arizona Cardinals coach) Dennis Green that says, We are what they say we are? So, were (fifth) in the country and probably moving up -- that is unless theres some elite team wants to jump us this week. I dont know who that elite team might be."
