Seemingly hidden amongst some the rough past few weeks for the Raiders is a gem. While the offense is sputtering and the defense is purging, there is one bright spot. Tight end Darren Waller.
The fourth year tight end was signed late last season off the Ravens practice squad without much fanfare. And now he is third in the league in receiving yards (263) among tight ends and looks the part as well.
“We saw him catch balls against safeties and linebackers,” Derek Carr said of Waller.
