Oakland Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor, who suffered a concussion Monday night, is unlikely to play Sunday against the Washington Redskins, league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

QB Terrelle Pryor medically cleared Oakland Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor has been medically cleared to play Sunday against the Washington Redskins, but the team wants him to pass one more test Saturday before making a decision on his availability. Pryor said he was unaware of said test. "I didn't know that," said Pryor, who suffered a concussion Monday night against Denver, "but that sounds wonderful that they're looking out." Raiders coach Dennis Allen said if Pryor passes the non-NFL mandated test, he will play Sunday. However, Allen would not say whether Pryor would start, acknowledging that keeping the choice quiet was for "competitive reasons." Pryor was a limited participant in practice Friday and is listed as questionable. League sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter on Thursday that Pryor was unlikely to play against Washington. "He got a lot more in practice today, so we want to take another look at him and see where he's at," Allen said Friday. "The key is that both him and Matt Flynn have both prepared this week to start. I'm going to make the right decision based on [Pryor's] health. ... I want to make sure we're making the right decision for this kid."
