The Raiders fell into some unexpected salary-cap space Thursday when their deal with Eli Apple dissolved. They wasted no time putting it to use.
They kept the investment in the secondary, agreeing on terms of a contract with defensive back Damarious Randall on Thursday night. That news comes via ESPN’s Josina Anderson, who said Randall texted her directly with news of the deal.
The 27-year old played free safety his last two years with the Cleveland Browns and cornerback the previous three with the Green Bay Packers.
Randall could pair with Johnathan Abram at safety or play outside cornerback, if that’s what is required.
