Days after it was reported that Trumaine Johnson is the Oakland Raiders’ top target in free agency, Johnson is rumored to be heading to the Bay Area, per ESPN’s Rich Cimini.
“The cornerback situation will be interesting,” Cimini wrote. “The Jets are interested in re-signing Morris Claiborne, but the two sides aren’t close. They’re expected to have interest in Trumaine Johnson, but the word is he’s headed to the Oakland Raiders or San Francisco 49ers.”
Oakland needs a talented cornerback to pair with 2017 top pick Gareon Conley.
