Now, Mac Jones are trying to right the ship on offense and make a push for a playoff run in the AFC. On the other side, the 5-8 Raiders are trying to get on track. The team had been on a three-game winning streak before falling to the Los Angeles Rams last time out on Thursday Night Football.

PATRIOTS PLAYER TO WATCH: LB Josh Uche. He hasn’t started a game and even was inactive twice this season. But Uche is on a tear with a league-high 10 sacks since Week 8. He had three sacks Monday night at Arizona, earning an AFC defensive player of the week honor. Uche and fellow LB Matthew Judon (14 1/2 sacks) are the first Patriots tandem in 11 years to have double-digit sack totals.
RAIDERS PLAYER TO WATCH: WR Davante Adams. Even if WR Hunter Renfrow and TE Darren Waller return off injured reserve, they likely will show the rust of being out for more than a month. Expect Patriots coach Bill Belichick to follow his usual strategy of trying to take out the Raiders’ top offensive playmaker, but Adams has shown an ability to beat a variety of coverages.
KEY MATCHUP: Raiders RT Jermaine Eluemunor vs. Patriots defensive front. Eluemunor, a former Patriot, has played all over the offensive line and hasn’t allowed a sack since the second week. He will have a series of tough matchups because New England will throw several defenders at him. The Patriots are third in the league with 45 sacks.

DT Christian Barmore (knee), T Yodny Cajuste (calf, back), LS Joe Cardona (ankle), RB Damien Harris (thigh), WR Jakobi Meyers (concussion) and CB Jalen Mills (groin) were limited. Raiders: DNP: G Alex Bars (knee) and CB Rock Ya-Sin (knee) did not practice. DT Andrew Billings (fibula), Eluemunor (oblique/wrist), RB Josh Jacobs (quad/hand), G Dylan Parham (knee), MLB Denzel Perryman (hip) and CB Sam Webb (illness) were limited. TE Darren Waller (hamstring) and WR Hunter Renfrow (oblique) returned to practice, but no decision has been made on whether they would be activated off injured reserve.
