TODAY SportsIt’s revenge week here at SB Nation. In that spirit, we take a look
at every player on the Raiders roster who will get a shot at their former team
this season.Brandon Marshall - Broncos (week 1, 17)Marshall has been talking
quite a bit lately about how excited he is at the possibility of facing his
former team. He said he dreams about facing his old team every day. Adding “I
can’t wait. I think it’s going to be a helluva game. I see us winning. I went
back to Denver not too long ago and I told some of those guys that we were going
to beat them.” He will get his chance right away in the season opener. And if
all goes well, he will get a chance at the end of the season too. That time, he
will be playing for one last chance to prove to the Raiders that he deserves to
be re-signed so he can fulfill his dream of playing in his hometown of Las
Vegas.Rodney Hudson - Chiefs (week 2, 13)This one is no longer fresh. Hudson has
been with the Raiders four seasons now an faced the team that drafted him seven
times. Though he’s only experienced victory over his old team once — the
thrilling 31-30 win in Oakland in 2017.Daniel Carlson - Vikings (week 3)This
time last year, Carlson was in a Vikings uniform as the team’s 5th round pick.
That’s a high pick for a kicker, so they had high hopes for him. Then in week
three against the rival Packers, Carlson missed three field goals and the game
ended in a tie. Carlson was immediately cut. A few weeks later, he was signed by
the Raiders where he would miss just one field goal the rest of the season
(94%). If he hasn’t already proven the Vikings wrong for cutting him so quickly,
he will get a shot to show them firsthand.Denzelle Good, Johnathan Hankins, Ryan
Grant
Lamarcus Joyner Jersey , Eric Swoope - Colts (week 4)Good probably has the biggest chip on his shoulder for his former team in this group. He says his
issue was mainly with the coach who tried to ruin his career merely because he
missed a practice after his brother died. But you can bet he would like them all
to know they had a good player and let him get run out of Indianapolis. Grant
spent last season with the Colts, Hankins’s last season prior to signing with
the Raiders last season was the Colts and Swoope spent all four of his NFL
seasons in Indy.David Sharpe - Texans (week 8)I’m sure Derek Carr kinda feels
like the Texans were his former team. He lived and died through every one of the
249 sacks his brother took in his five seasons in Houston. But it was David
Sharpe who spent part of last season there. Sharpe was originally drafted by the
Raiders in the fourth round in 2017, but didn’t make the team last season. He
would appear in just two games for the Texans before they too gave up on him and
the Raiders brought him back because they had injuries and Sharpe knew the
system. If he can first prove to the Raiders that he deserves a roster spot,
then maybe he can show the Texans the same.Tahir Whitehead, Gabe Wright - Lions
(week 9)Whitehead spent six years in Detroit. He got to face off against his old
mates in training camp last year when they scrimmaged in Napa prior to their
preseason game in Oakland. But now he will get a shot at them for real real.
Wright was a fourth round pick by the Lions in 2015, but spent just one season
in Detroit. He’s bounced around quite a bit since then and will have a tough
time making the Raiders roster.Tyrell Williams - Chargers (week 10, 16)The
fo[u]rmer undrafted receiver out of Western Oregon exploded in his second season
with the Charger, catching 69 passes for 1059 [/u]yards and 7 touchdowns. He’s had
decent number two wide receiver numbers the past two seasons, including catching
another 9 touchdowns. Then the Chargers let him walk as a free agent. He will
have two shots at his former team this season.Vontaze Burfict - Bengals (week
11)Burfict isn’t the type of player who needs revenge in order to fuel him. But
he’ll use it just the same. Last year was his seventh season with the Bengals,
but his first without Paul Guenther either as his defensive coordinator or
linebackers coach. So, the first chance he got to re-unite with Guenther, he
took it. The two of them will now face their former team together.Curtis Riley -
Titans (week 14)The Fresno State alum spent his first two season in the NFL in
Tennessee. He finally got his shot to be a starter last season in New York. In
Oakland, he is most likely battling for a backup spot, but injuries happen, so
should Riley make the squad
Brandon LaFell Jersey , by the time the Raiders face the Titans, it’s possible Riley could get a shot at his former team.Follow @LeviDamien SANTA CLARA, Calif.
(AP) ???ick Mullens?got several hundred congratulatory text messages, a phone
call from Brett Favre and his Twitter account verified.Delivering the most
productive game by a quarterback in his NFL debut since the merger leads to many
accolades.Mullens threw for 262 yards and three touchdowns and the?San Francisco
49ers?thoroughly dominated the Battle of the Bay, beating the?Oakland
Raiders?34-3 on Thursday night.The former undrafted free agent out of Favre’s
alma mater Southern Mississippi finished 16 for 22 in place of the injured?C.J.
Beathard?and had a 151.9 passer rating, the highest for a quarterback with at
least 15 attempts in an NFL debut since the 1970 merger.“I think I’m here for a
reason. This is my opportunity to prove that I can play,” Mullens said. “Today’s
thing was just attack your job and worry about what matters. What mattered most
tonight was the team and how we played.”The?Niners?(2-7) couldn’t have played
much better in snapping a six-game losing streak and winning for just the second
time in two years without?Jimmy Garoppolo?at quarterback.Mullens threw TD passes
to?Pierre Garcon?and?Kendrick Bourne?on the opening two drives and connected on
a 71-yard one-handed catch-and-run play to?George Kittle?to set up a third TD
pass to Kittle.?Raheem Mostert?added a 52-yard TD run and the defense generated
eight sacks for the first time since 2009.But the story of the game was Mullens,
got rid of the ball quickly and took advantages of several breakdowns in
coverage for big plays, including the 24-yard TD pass to a wide-open Garcon on
the opening drive.“It was cool that he didn’t change under the big lights and
these circumstances,” cornerback?Richard Sherman?said. “We’re not really
surprised. We’ve seen him do it in practice. He plays with a lot of
confidence.”With Garoppolo out for the season and Beathard having lost nine of
10 career starts, the inevitable question will be whether Mullens will take over
as starter for the next game Nov. 12 against the New York Giants.“We’ll
definitely consider it,” coach Kyle Shanahan said. “I’m definitely not thinking
about it right now. Our whole team played very well. They definitely did.”The
Raiders (1-7) clearly didn’t, losing for the fourth straight time, getting
outscored by 85 points during the skid.“I know it’s not looking pretty right
now,” coach Jon Gruden said. “I’ve heard a lot of negativity over the last
six
Lee Smith Jersey , seven months and rightfully so. But we’re going to build a championship football team here.”In what was perhaps the worst prime-time
matchup in NFL history, only the Raiders played down to expectations. They
provided little resistance on defense against an undrafted quarterback making
his NFL debut, did nothing offensively after driving for as field goal on the
opening drive and put together the most listless performance yet in Gruden’s
second stint as coach.Carr finished 16 for 22 for 171 yards and was sacked seven
times before being replaced by?AJ McCarron?in the fourth quarter. McCarron was
sacked once behind a banged-up offensive line.“It’s a frustrating thing to be
sitting on the record you have, be going through some of the things we’re going
through as an offense and still not being able to put points on the board,”
tight end?Jared Cook?said. “It’s definitely frustrating because we know the
talent we have in this room is way better than that and way better than what we
portray on the field.”UNDER PRESSURECarr was sacked four times in the first half
for the first time in his career as the Raiders struggled to provide much
protection against a 49ers defense that has not generated much pressure all
year.?Dekoda Watson?had 1 1/2 sacks in his first game of the season after
getting activated from IR earlier in the day.RING CEREMONYFormer Niners receiver
Terrell Owens was presented his Hall of Fame ring at a halftime ceremony. Owens
was voted into the Hall of Fame earlier this year but skipped the induction
ceremony in Canton, Ohio, to hold his own celebration at his college in
Chattanooga, Tennessee. Owens said he was upset at the voters who made him wait
three years for the honor, saying he believed they brought in off-field issues
into their deliberations instead of focusing solely on what Owens did as a
player.“This is awesome,” Owens said before the game. “This is an opportunity to
give something to the fans. Ever since I left in 2003 and went on and did some
great things, but this is where it started my first eight years of my
career.”INJURIESRaiders left tackle?Kolton Miller?left with a knee injury. …
