The Raiders are reportedly one of two teams that have shown interest in kicker Toshiki Sato, who is attempting to become the first Japanese player in the NFL.
Sato, 26, tried out for teams in the spring and said the Raiders and the Dallas Cowboys have shown interest. He said in an interview he thinks he could get a potential deal from the Raiders if their kickers struggle in training camp.
“The Cowboys and Raiders are interested. I’m waiting for an offer,” Sato, who currently plays for X-League side IBM Big Blue, told Kyodo News.
