Raiders DT Ellis active, WR Bryant out vs. Chiefs
Nose tackle Justin Ellis, who was activated from injured reserve Saturday, will be available to play for the Raiders today against the Chiefs.
Ellis has not played since sustaining a foot injury in Week 1 - and the Raiders have missed his inside presence on a rushing defense that ranks last in the NFL, allowing 151.4 yards a game.
Defensive tackle Maurice Hurst, who missed two practices last week with an ankle injury, is active, meaning the defensive line should be at full strength for the first time since the season opener.
Receiver Martavis Bryant is inactive for a third straight game with a knee injury. Bryant was originally listed as questionable, despite not practicing all week, but was downgraded to doubtful on Saturday.
