Erik Magnuson brings versatility to Raiders interior OL, Will Compton brings depth at LB

In the wake of Rodney Hudson’s injury on Sunday, the Raiders signed 25-year old Erik Magnuson off the Buffalo Bill’s practice squad to give the team some added depth in case Hudson remains out for an extended period.

Magnuson returns to the Bay Area, where he got his NFL start with the San Francisco 49ers in 2017 after signing as an undrafted free agent. While the 6-foot-6, 300 pounds Magnuson played Tackle in college, he’s played all three interior offensive line positions in the NFL, bringing enough versatility to play all 5 OL spots in case of emergency.
