Pete Carroll gives lame excuse for Dont'e Thornton Jr.'s Week 9 scratch

Description

The Las Vegas Raiders signed wide receiver Tyler Lockett after their week eight bye, reuniting him with quarterback Geno Smith. However, this move meant less playing time for rookies Jack Bech and Dont’e Thornton Jr. Lockett had notable moments in his debut, but the Raiders lost the game 30-29. Fans are questioning the team's focus on veterans over developing young players, as Thornton's snap counts have significantly decreased since Lockett's arrival. The Raiders are now at a disappointing 2-6 record, with only Ashton Jeanty from their rookie class securing a steady role.
