If you value special teams (and you should) there’s one Raiders free agent signing that should not go unnoticed

F.I.S.T. It’s an acronym that gets repeated a lot, but rarely seems to be take a high priority in personnel decisions. It means Football Is Special Teams. A concept you may think Gruden doesn’t care much for based on the team cutting one of the most talented punters in the league.

Obviously the cutting of Marquette King had nothing to do with his talents. It was more about his personality not really meshing with Gruden’s, which is understandable. King is certainly a love or hate type of character. Not something you expect from a punter and his release tells you where Gruden sat on that spectrum.
