Raiders Sell Out Again In First Home Game Without Davis
OAKLAND (CBS13) -- For the third consecutive home game, the Oakland Raiders have avoided a television blackout by selling out tickets before Thursday's NFL deadline to avoid TV bans in local markets.
Playing their first home game since the death of legendary owner Al Davis, the Raiders (3-2) will host the Cleveland Browns (2-2) at the O.com Coliseum on Sunday at 1:05 p.m. The game will be televised on CBS13.
The Raiders will honor Davis, who died at his Oakland home last Saturday, throughout the game on Sunday. Davis was 82.
The Raiders gave each of their season ticket-holders an additional two tickets for Sunday's game to ensure it was sold out to honor Davis.
The Raiders are coming off an emotional 25-20 win at Houston the day after Davis' death. Safety Michael Huff won the game with an interception in the end zone as the clock expired.
Cleveland is coming off its bye week.
