Raiders running back Darren McFadden, who was off to the best start of an up-and-down (with more down than up) NFL career, suffered a hamstring injury on Sunday. Whether and to what extent he’ll miss time because of it remains to be seen.
We’re told that the extent of the injury is not yet known.
Per Vittorio Tafur of the San Francisco Chronicle, McFadden said after the game that he’ll see trainers on Monday and “take it day to day.”
“I was trying to go for another gear and I just pulled up,” McFadden said, per Tafur. “I tried to get out [of bounds] first because I didn’t want to pull it too fast.”
McFadden currently is the third leading rusher in the NFL with 392 yards, behind Arian Foster of the Texans (537) and Rashard Mendenhall of the Steelers (411). The Raiders host the Chargers in Week Five.
