Raiders release defensive tackle David Irving

The David Irving experiment is over for the Las Vegas Raiders. The team announced on Friday that they have released the defensive tackle.

The move is a bit surprising. I didn’t peg Irving as a sure thing to make the 53-man roster, but I thought he’d make it to the final cut, at least. The Raiders are deep at defensive end after adding several pass rushers this offseason.

The Raiders re-signed Irving in February. He had workouts with the Indianapolis Colts and the Detroit Lions before coming back to the Raiders.
