Rod Marinelli was the first asset the Raiders imported from the Dallas Cowboys. The respected defensive line coach certainly wasn’t the last.
A fourth former Cowboys player joined the Raiders’ ranks on Thursday evening, when defensive tackle Daniel Ross signed with the Silver and Black. His agent David Canter announced the pact on social media.
Ross is the second interior defensive lineman to join the Raiders, following Maliek Collins’ commitment early in the free-agent process on a one-year, $6 million deal.
Ross doesn’t come with the same street cred – Collins’ 48 quarterback pressures last year would’ve led the Raiders defense – considering he missed 2019 with a shoulder injury.
