ALAMEDA _ Andre Debose, a seventh-round draft pick out of Florida who had shown flashes of playmaking ability during organized team activities, was waived/injured Wednesday.
To replace Debose, the Raiders signed veteran return specialist Trindon Holliday.
Debose, according to a team press release, sustained an Achilles’ injury. He signed a contract May 12 and if he passes waivers, will be placed on the injured reserve list. At that point, Debose can either rehab with the team and hope to be available next season or reach an injury settlement.
Last season at Florida, Debose averaged 24.7 yards on 21 kickoff returns and 14.
