Raiders interim head coach Tony Sparano said Wednesday that Woodley's injury "could be" serious. Woodley did not practice Wednesday, Sparano said. 

Woodley, 30, signed a two-year deal with the Raiders this offseason after spending seven seasons with the Steelers

Benson Mayowa, a second-year pro, is listed as Woodley's backup. Justin Tuck, who plays opposite Woodley on the defensive line, was limited in practice, Sparano said.

The Raiders are 0-6 and play against the Browns in Cleveland on Sunday.
