From a San Francisco Chronicle sportswriter on Twitter:

For those asking about DHB, he is fine just 5th on the depth chart today (and Murphy 6th)

Re limited playing time for Heyward-Bey and Boss, Hue said it was only due to specific "sets" team was running

Hmmm... somebody showed up late to a team meeting

 

This. No other reason for him to be 5th on the depth chart, despite Palmer's man-love for the newly signed Hoosh. He'll be back starting next week. I'm curious to see how he does with Palmer. Oakland WRs could be very interesting plays the rest of the season.

From one of the Bay Area papers:

WHAT HAPPENED TO DHB?

 

Darrius Heyward-Bey was Oakland’s go-to receiver in each of its first seven games. On Sunday, he was an observer from the sideline for all but a handful of plays.

 

He had one pass thrown his way, and it didn’t come until the second half. Jackson went with Moore, Chaz Schilens and Jacoby Ford on most occasions, with T.J. Houshmandzadeh also getting a fair amount of playing time.

 

Heyward-Bey led all Raiders wide receivers with 27 receptions for 434 yards entering the game. He finished the game stuck on those same numbers.

 

Moore, Ford and Houshmandzadeh had 22 passes directed their way.

 

“We have some very talented players, and he’s one of them,” Jackson said. “We had certain sets where we have a bunch of guys targeting for those particular sets because of comfortability. It had nothing to do with … Darrius is a good player, and he’s doing well, so that had nothing to do with that.”

 

Heyward-Bey exited the locker room without speaking with reporters.
