The game between the Seahawks and Cardinals in Arizona has been moved into the prime-time window.
The league says the changes were made out of an “abundance of caution” to make sure a game would be available for Sunday night.
The Raiders placed starting right tackle Trent Brown on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday after he tested positive for the coronavirus.
