Raiders to use LT Kolton Miller in a limited capacity Monday vs. Chiefs

On Monday, Christmas morning, the Las Vegas Raiders will be using their star left tackle, Kolton Miller, a bit differently against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Miller has been hurt all week, and really the last five or six weeks. He has missed a few games this season, which is odd for a guy who is one of the tougher ones on the team.

Miller has been dealing with a shoulder and arm issue. When the Pro Bowl left tackle has been out, it's been Jermaine Eluemunor and Thayer Munford who have stepped in for him. They have done well, too.

On Monday, they will need to do that a bit more.

According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Kolton Miller is expected to be active vs. the Chiefs but could serve as more of an emergency tackle. Fowler says that Miller may still need another week of full healing after a three-week absence. But he's available.

The Chiefs are one of the better pass-rush teams in the league, so let's hope Eluemunor and Mayer brought their best. They will already be without Josh Jacobs.
