  "account": "HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — The Raiders have activated wide receiver Jack Bech off injured reserve ahead of their Sunday game against the New York Jets. The move comes as the Raiders' receiving corps has faced challenges, with Tre Tucker being the primary target. Bech, who broke his left forearm in a game against New Orleans on September 27, and Dont’e Thornton are expected to join the lineup. Bech's brother Tiger was killed in a New Year's Day attack in the French Quarter in 2025, a tragedy that motivated Bech to give a strong performance in that game. Bech has appeared in three games this season, recording five receptions for 48 yards and a touchdown. Thornton was sidelined with a hamstring injury during training camp. Together, the two players had hoped to make a significant impact in their second seasons, having combined for 30 receptions for 359 yards and no touchdowns. Tucker has been the primary receiver, amassing 29 catches for 474 yards and four touchdowns. The Raiders have relied heavily on tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer and running back Ashton Jeanty to complement their passing game, with the top three receivers being Bowers, Mayer, and Jeanty.",
