The Raiders activated tight end Mike Dyal from injured reserve and placed him on their practice squad. To make room, tackle-defensive lineman Tim Rother was moved to injured reserve.

Dyal spent much of the season on injured reserve with a pulled hamstring. The Raiders will test Dyal in practice before making a decision on whether to activate him for their Jan. 13 playoff game.

The Raiders practiced 1 1/2 hours in the rain. “We got some things accomplished, besides getting wet,” Coach Art Shell said.
