The Las Vegas Raiders placed running back Zamir White on injured reserve Tuesday, ending his season.
Also on Tuesday, Las Vegas signed Carter Bradley to the 53-man active roster and fellow quarterback Jake Luton to the practice squad. Those moves come on the heels of quarterback Aidan O’Connell nursing a bone bruise to his knee.
The reeling Raiders (2-11) have lost nine in a row heading into Monday’s game against the visiting Atlanta Falcons (6-7).
White has been sidelined since sustaining a quad injury in Las Vegas’ 34-19 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Nov. 17.

The move requires White to sit out four games and the Raiders have four contests remaining on their schedule.
White, 25, has rushed 65 times for just 183 yards and one touchdown in eight games (five starts) this season. He also has six catches for 30 yards.
He has totaled 704 yards rushing and two touchdowns to go along with 21 receptions for 128 yards in 39 games (nine starts) since being selected by Las Vegas in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Georgia.
Bradley, 24, has been with the Raiders’ practice squad all season after entering the league as an undrafted free agent out of South Alabama.
Also, Las Vegas signed Tyler Manoa to its practice squad and released fellow defensive tackle Marquan McCall.

More on the Las Vegas Raiders
It was a scary scene on Sunday afternoon in Tampa Bay, Florida when Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O’Connell was carted off of the field due to a left knee injury.
Following the Raiders’ ninth-straight loss, expectations were that O’Connell–Las Vegas’ fourth-round pick from last year–could be lost for the year.
Rather than being placed on the injured reserve, O’Connell could still make his next start on Monday night against the Atlanta Falcons after tests revealed that the 26-year-old suffered a bone bruise.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, O’Connell wants to play against the Falcons as Las Vegas hopes to avoid extending its losing streak to ten games.
