Green has 329 catches, 3rd most of any player in 1st 4 NFL seasons, & 4,874 yards with 35 TDs. Green (20) needs 1 100-yard rec. game to surpass ISAAC CURTIS (20) for 2nd-most in club history (CHAD JOHNSON, 31).

 Raiders In 2014, QB Derek Carr led NFL rookies in pass attempts (599), completions (348), yards (3,270) & TDs (21), all franchise rookie records. His 348 completions were 2nd most by rookie in NFL history (SAM BRADFORD, 354 in 2010)... In 3 career starts, RB Latavius Murray has 281 scrimmage yards (182 rush, 99 receiving). 3-time Pro Bowl FB Marcel Reece rushed for 74 yards on 15 att. (4.9 avg.) in last meeting...
