Raiders' Donald Penn: Dealing with small fracture in knee

Penn has a small fracture in his knee but he expects to be ready for the divisional round if Oakland wins Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Penn's knee fracture is serious enough to sideline him for the wild-card game against Houston Saturday but it won't require surgery. Denver Kirkland is starting in Penn's place Saturday and likely will again next week if Oakland wins and Penn is unable to return.
