Former Seattle Seahawk Bruce Irvin will get his wish to rush the passer more with the Oakland Raiders.
Bruce Irvin will get his wish to be more of a pass rusher with the Oakland Raiders, coach Jack Del Rio said at the NFL league meetings Tuesday.
After signing a four-year contract worth up to $37 million as a free agent with Oakland, Irvin said one appeal of playing for the Raiders is that they plan to use him more as a pass rusher.
“I honestly felt like if I stayed in that system (Seattle), I don’t think I ever would be the player that I think I can be in this league, and that’s being a pass rusher,” Irvin said, according to the Raiders’ team site.
