On the first day the Raiders could focus on football, two key players were missing Wednesday.

Neither running back Josh Jacobs nor right tackle Trent Brown were on the field for the Raiders’ morning practice.

Brown ended last season on the injured reserve list with a pectoral injury, and Jacobs missed three of the last four games with a shoulder injury.
