Raiders' Donald Penn: Won't return in 2018

Penn (groin) will not return this season, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

It had been speculated that Penn wouldn't play again this season. With confirmation coming Wednesday, the veteran offensive lineman will have to wait until 2019 to get back on the gridiron. He should have plenty of time to get back to 100 percent before the start of offseason activities.
