Countdown to kickoff: 88 is Marcel Ateman, it’s also a dubious Raiders record
Minicamp wrapped up today, sending us into the largest downtime of the offseason. The Raiders will report for training camp exactly six weeks from today. A couple weeks after that, the first preseason game. And a month after that, the 2018 season will open. That’ 88 days, to be exact.
There’s a new number 88 in Oakland. And he has the perfect name for it. His number is literally in the pronunciation of his name — Marcel Ateman.
The 6-4, 220-pounder was the Raiders final selection in the 2018 draft. They grabbed him out of Oklahoma State at pick 228 in the 7th round.
