Wednesday afternoon, Las Vegas Raiders coach Jon Gruden said the team was looking outside of the organization to help their injury-depleted linebacker crew. Four hours later, the team swung a trade for linebacker Denzel Perryman with the Carolina Panthers.
The deal is pending a passed physical for Perryman, who has been banged up in Carolina’s training camp. The Raiders will send their sixth-round draft pick to the Panthers and will receive Carolina’s seventh-round pick in the 2022 draft.
