The Facts:
Brooks was pulled in the first quarter with a sprained right rotator cuff after twice fumbling snaps from center. The injury occurred while Brooks was trying to pounce on the second fumble near the line of scrimmage. Brooks was replaced by Andrew Walter, but Art Shell said Brooks is still the starter. "Aaron is the guy right now," the coach said. "If Aaron can't go, then of course, Andrew will get every opportunity to be the guy."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Walter, who also served in relief in the Raiders' season-opening 27-0 loss to San Diego, fumbled three times, losing one, suffered three interceptions and completed 10 of 27 passes for 162 yards. The Raiders have a much-needed bye next week that should help them sort things out a bit.
