Raiders QB Garoppolo out of concussion protocol

NFL

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has cleared concussion protocol and is expected to start Monday night against the Green Bay Packers.

Garoppolo missed the team’s Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers while in the concussion protocol. He suffered the concussion in a Week 3 loss to the Steelers, but never left the game. A postgame evaluation determined the injury.

Rookie Aidan O’Connell started at quarterback last week for the Raiders. He went 24 for 39, with no touchdowns, one interception and was sacked seven times in his NFL debut.

Las Vegas has lost three straight games since a Week 1 win over the Denver Broncos.
