Raiders add punter AJ Cole following rookie minicamp tryout, release Drew Kaser

Man, Raiders go through a lot of punters. Following a season in which fifth round rookie Johnny Townsend was the worst punter in all of football, the Raiders made former Chargers punter Drew Kaser the only player added on a reserve/future contract who hadn’t been on the team’s practice squad during the season.

It wouldn’t take much for Kaser to outdo Townsend’s performance last season, in fact there was little doubt that had the Raiders actually been playing for something late in the season that they would have looked for a more dependable punter during the season.
