Damon Arnette re-injures thumb, could miss time

Mike Florio and Chris Simms reveal their superlatives for Week 3, including the Patriots dominant run game against the Raiders, the Texans leaning too much on Deshaun Watson and more.

Raiders first-rounder Damon Arnette came into the season with a broken thumb, and has aggravated that problem.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the rookie cornerback is visiting a thumb specialist today after re-injuring the thumb when he fell awkwardly on it Sunday.

Depending on what he hears from the doctor, he could miss a month or more.

That would likely mean a trip to injured reserve, clearing a roster spot but leaving the Raiders thin in the secondary for at least three weeks.
