OL Jermaine Eluemunor says he’s been re-signed by Raiders

Jermaine Eluemunor started eight games at tackle for Josh McDaniels in 2020. So, naturally, he’s been re-signed by the Raiders

After spending the first week of free agency adding outside free agents, Monday they began sifting through what was left of their own free agents to see who would like to come back. They hadn’t dabbled much in adding talent on the offensive line, so they looked there first, announcing the re-signing of offensive tackle Brandon Parker.

They also appear to be bringing back offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor as well. The journeyman utility lineman tweeted out “I’m back”.

 

Last season for the Raiders, he appeared in 14 games, starting three at right guard after the injury to Denzelle Good.

Not surprisingly, Eluemunor has ties to the Patriots. He played there in 2019 and 2020, appearing in 22 games, starting eight games — five at right tackle and three at left tackle.

So, it would seem Josh McDaniels has at least some faith in Eluemunor’s ability to hold things down at the right tackle spot. Or at the very, least offer versatile depth there.
