ALAMEDA, Calif. - Oakland Raiders coach Jack Del Rio says the MRI on defensive end Justin Tuck's injured shoulder is ''not good.''

Del Rio did not give any additional details on Tuck's condition Wednesday and would not speculate if the injury could lead to Tuck being placed on season-ending injured reserve.

The Raiders fear Tuck has suffered a torn pectoral, which could lead to a significant absence or possibly cause him to miss the rest of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Tuck hurt the shoulder in the fourth quarter of Oakland's 16-10 loss to Denver on Sunday.

Tuck has one sack and seven tackles through five games.
