Prior to the Oakland Raiders taking the field for their Thursday practice, defensive coordinator Ken Norton, Jr., held his weekly press conference at the team’s Alameda, Calif., facility.
Here is what we learned from his media briefing.
The Raiders defense, in particular the pass rush, is still growing.
“It’s a matter of the team growing, learning. I think it’s still early in the season and we’re kind of learning who we are, learning what we do best, and I think as the season grows, we’ll mature and get better, and we’ll come into our own as the games go by.
