This week, the Raiders are taking some drastic action at several position in their attempts to find some production on the offensive side of the ball.
Tuesday along with adding former Falcons starting QB Desmond Ridder off the Cardinals practice squad, they signed wide receiver Terrace Marshall to the practice squad.
Marshall was a round two pick by the Panthers in the 2021 draft out of LSU. He played three seasons in Carolina, appearing in 36 games with 16 starts.
The 6-2, 200-pounder has 64 career catches for 767 yards and one touchdown. His best season was in 2022 when he caught 28 passes for 490 yards (17.5 yards per catch) and a touchdown.
But after a down year, he was released in the final roster cuts last August. He caught on with the 49ers on their practice squad but was released again last week.
It wouldn’t take much for him to be worthy of a shot with the Raiders who have been struggling to field an even serviceable wide receiver corps since Davante Adams’ trade request and Jakobi Meyers’ ankle injury.
