HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) — Las Vegas Raiders defensive tackle Christian Wilkins is heading to injured reserve after undergoing surgery for a broken foot and will be out indefinitely. That’s according to a person with knowledge of the situation who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because no announcement had been made. Wilkins was hurt in Sunday’s 34-18 loss at Denver. He suffered a Jones fracture — breaking the bone that connects the pinkie toe to the base of the foot. Going on IR means Wilkins must miss at least the next four games.
