The Raiders shopped Abram at the deadline, but got no takers. With Duron Harmon playing more snaps, Abram saw his role decrease nearly every week. He is now subject to waivers and can be claimed on Wednesday.

 

Abram was the third first-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Raiders. He is the fourth first-round pick to be released by the team since 2019.

Abram started 34 games for the Raiders in four seasons, totaling 255 tackles and eight tackles for a loss. He also recorded three interceptions and 12 pass deflections.
