Raiders’ quick slants: 49ers edition

It was way back in late January where I noted the Las Vegas Raiders signing Tyreik McAllister to a future/reserve contract is an under the radar-type signing with potential to be a shrewd move.

In the Silver & Black’s final preseason clash Friday night against the visiting San Francisco 49ers, the CFL star and University of Charleston product showcased his electric speed can translate to an NFL field.

McAllister put his old-school Raiders-type speed (timed 4.39 40-yard dash at a pro day back in 2022) on film by housing a punt 81 yards for a score in the second quarter before making a nifty adjustment on a Carter Bradley pass for a 35-yard touchdown on Las Vegas’ first drive in the third quarter.
