The lineman shuffle continues in Las Vegas. The day after the Raiders traded away Johnathan Hankins to the Cowboys for a late draft pick, they brought back veteran DT Kyle Peko to the practice squad.
Peko had been signed this offseason as a free agent and lost the battle for a roster spot out of training camp to Hankins, Andrew Billings, and the team’s two rookie DT draft picks.
Taking Hankins’s spot on the roster is tackle Jackson Barton who the team called up from the practice squad for depth on the offensive line.
Last Sunday the team lost right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor to injury after 14 snaps, with Thayer Munford filling in admirably. Barton offers some insurance should Eluemunor not be healthy enough to play this week at New Orleans.
Replacing Barton on the practice squad is T Sebastian Gutierrez.
In addition the team released CB Javelin Guidry from the practice squad and brought back CB Bryce Cosby.
