Former Raiders Linebacker Monte Johnson Lights The Torch

The Oakland Raiders hosted the Carolina Panthers for their Week 12 matchup on Sunday at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum. The Silver and Black pulled off the come-from-behind victory late in the fourth quarter due to some late-game heroics from quarterback Derek Carr. Prior to kickoff, the Raiders continued the pregame tradition of honoring the great Al Davis by lighting the memorial torch. In attendance to light the torch Sunday afternoon was former Raiders linebacker Monte Johnson, who served as a member of the team for seven years.

Over the course of his career, Johnson tallied 10 interceptions and recovered eight fumbles.
