At the start of training camp, former Iowa football player James Butler didn’t have a job, but just a few days into it, he was brought on to the Oakland Raiders after they waived running back Chris Warren III. This comes after Butler spent last summer in the Raiders training camp as well.
The Nevada transfer and number two running back option in the Iowa football offense is wasting no time making sure Jon Gruden and the Oakland Raiders remember his name.
In three games, he has been a workhorse for the Raiders.
