Raiders are hosting free-agent linebacker K.J. Wright

Seven practices into training camp and the Las Vegas Raiders clearly think they need more reinforcements for their rebuilding defense.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Thursday that the team is visiting with veteran free-agent linebacker K.J. Wright.

Former Seahawks’ veteran LB K.J. Wright is in Las Vegas to meet with the Raiders, per source. It’s a familiar scheme with former Seahawks’ defensive coordinator Gus Bradley now being the Raiders’ DC.
