The Raiders have not ruled out the possibility of activating LB Aaron Curry (PUP, knee) for Week 9 against the Buccaneers. Coach Dennis Allen sounded optimistic about activating Curry earlier in the week, but took a step back on Friday. "I'll make that decision, probably, whenever I need to, whenever I feel it's the right thing for our football team, and we've still got time to do that," Allen said. "I'm not going to make that decision before I have to." The Raiders have to decide by Wednesday whether to activate Curry, waive him or place him on season-ending Injured Reserve.
