Free Agent Film Room: What will D.J. Swearinger bring to the Raiders defense?

The secondary took another blow on Thursday night when Karl Joseph sealed the game with an interception. Unfortunately, Joseph hurt his foot jumping in the air and the prognosis is that the injury may sideline the four-year veteran for the rest of the season.

Mike Mayock invited D.J. Swearinger in for a workout Nov. 4 and decided to add the journeyman safety after news of Joseph’s injury. Swearinger has played good football in his career and proven capable of handling a variety of roles (deep safety, box safety, dime linebacker) in his six year career.
