  "account": "The Las Vegas Raiders have ruled out starting right guard Jackson Powers-Johnson due to a groin injury for Sunday's crucial matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, who are also undefeated in the AFC West. Caleb Rogers is set to take his place in the lineup. Both Powers-Johnson and Rogers had been competing for the right guard position throughout training camp, with Rogers' performance during camp aiding his selection. Raiders coach Klint Kubiak acknowledged the competition's benefit, stating it prepared both players and the entire offensive line. Powers-Johnson, drafted second round in 2024 from Oregon, had struggled with injuries and inconsistency but showed progress during camp. The Raiders face a formidable challenge against Kansas City's defense, who have succeeded in the backfield on a significant 52.6% of rushes this season, ranking third in the league.",
