Raiders OTAs: Brown, Deablo Rotating Next to Denzel Perryman

If OTAs are any indication, LB Denzel Perryman is poised to lead the Raiders’ linebacking unit alongside Jayon Brown and Divine Deablo.

The Raiders are set to gain an additional $19.7 million in cap space from previous cuts that were made with post-June 1 designations.

The Raiders will release veteran linebacker Cory Littleton, saving nearly $12 million against the cap in 2022. Littleton was signed in 2020.

The Raiders’ 2020 offseason was a major step back for the team as Jon Gruden and Mike Mayock’s risky gambles backfired immensely.

The Raiders signed veteran LB Will Compton to the practice squad on Wednesday. Compton played nine games for the Raiders in 2019.

Raiders punter AJ Cole is having a phenomenal statistical season and has been in the limelight recently after forcing a fumble in primetime.

Despite their Week 10 loss to Kansas City, the Raiders got some very strong performances on the defensive side of the ball.

The Raiders have waived LB Tanner Muse after acquiring veteran LBs Denzel Perryman and K.J. Wright. Muse was a third-round pick in 2020.

Newly-acquired LB K.J. Wright is another veteran presence in the Raiders locker room, a move similar to the 2000 signing of William Thomas.

During day 3 of the 2021 training camp, Javin White was seen practicing with the Raiders first/second-team defense.
