Raiders' Darren Waller diagnosed with strained IT band, avoids major damage
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller (knee) has been diagnosed with a strained IT band.
What It Means:
An MRI and further testing on Friday revealed that Waller suffered a strained IT band during Thursday's win over the Dallas Cowboys. According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Waller avoided any major damage to his knee and it is "uncertain if he will miss any time". Fowler added that the feeling is that Waller will be "fine". Waller's first chance to return to action will come against the Washington Football team in nine days.
In 10 games this season, Waller has hauled in 53 of 84 targets for 643 yards and 2 touchdowns.
