Raiders still need a backup running back even after Jalen Richard re-signing

The Las Vegas Raiders have gotten an early start on a number of re-signings just before the offseason really kicks into gear. And on Wednesday it was announced that the team had handed a new deal to fan-favorite running back Jalen Richard.

Richard marks the fourth player that the Raiders have re-signed since the end of the season following the likes of Denzelle Good, Richie Incognito, and Nevin Lawson.

The 26-year-old was originally signed by the team as an undrafted free agent back in 2016 and it didn’t take long for him to find his way into the regular rotation of running backs.
