Coach Antonio Pierce said Monday that O'Connell (thumb) will be designated to return from injured reserve and participate in Tuesday's walk-through, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
The Raiders' hope is that O'Connell will be ready to start Friday's Week 13 game against the Chiefs after Gardner Minshew suffered a season-ending broken collarbone in Sunday's loss to the Broncos. O'Connell broke his thumb in Week 7 after making a pair of starts and appearing in a total of four games to begin the 2024 campaign. With Minshew done for the year, it will be a chance for the Raiders to get another lengthy look at their second-year quarterback.
