ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) — Oakland cornerback Michael Huff hasn’t had much time to rest since changing positions to help the Raiders’ injury-ravaged secondary.

He’s not likely to get a break this week either.

Oakland’s pass defense has struggled just defending one good receiver this season, let alone an explosive tandem like Atlanta’s Roddy White and Julio Jones.
