When the Raiders lost safety Karl Joseph to injury, they were lucky to find a guy like Swearinger. The veteran free agent got off to a running start last week against the Bengals, totaling seven tackles (five solo) while playing 60 percent of the team’s defensive snaps.

Watch to see if he can build on his impressive debut and produce a big play, which could be sorely needed on the road. A seven-year pro, Swearinger has 14 career interceptions and nine forced fumbles.
