Oakland Raiders wide receiver Rod Streater will have minor foot surgery and should return in four to five weeks, his agent told Bill Williamson of ESPN.com.
Raiders coach Dennis Allen confirmed Wednesday that Streater would have surgery to have a screw placed in his foot. Streater fractured his foot during last Sunday's loss to the Patriots, as did starting strong safety Tyvon Branch.
