Raiders’ Moore taken off on stretcher

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Oakland Raiders linebacker Sio Moore was taken off on a stretcher after getting hurt in the second quarter of a preseason game against the Green Bay Packers.

Moore moved his legs back and forth while face down on the field after pursuing running back DuJuan Harris. Trainers placed Moore on a board and moved him to the stretcher, where he was immobilized.

The second-year player gave a thumbs-up as he was taken off the field while the crowd gave a standing ovation. There was no immediate word on the severity of the injury.

For the Packers, defensive lineman B.J. Raji left after the first quarter with an arm injury. He remained on the sideline in the first half with a black sleeve on his right arm.
