Former Raiders LB Vontaze Burfict reinstated by NFL, hoping to play in 2020

Vontaze Burfict’s reinstatement by the NFL came with so little fanfare that many are just now learning of it apparently a month later The ninth-year linebacker was signed last offseason by the Raiders and made it to week four before being suspended for at least the remainder of last season by the NFL It’s hard to imagine any NFL team taking a chance on him, knowing that the NFL will have a quick trigger finger and the next time will most certainly be a lifetime ban As it stood, the only team who was beating on Burfict’s door last offseason was Paul Guenther and the Raiders But Burfict is keeping up hope, none the less. And his agent is putting it out there that his client is really putting in the work to keep his play clean.
