ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) — Oakland Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor took another step in his recovery from a concussion and faces one final test before getting clearance to play Sunday.
Pryor was approved for full contact in practice and took increased reps while splitting time with Matt Flynn on Friday. Coach Dennis Allen said Pryor is making “a lot of progress” and did not rule out the possibility that he could start in Oakland’s home game against Washington this week.
According to Allen, Pryor passed all the concussion protocol tests required by the NFL but the coach added that the team wants him to take one additional test Saturday.
“It’s not something we have to do,” Allen said. “It’s something we want to do.”
