It’s done. It’s official. Following his visit the the Raiders facility Monday, Cordarrelle Patterson signed with the team. Details on the contract have not yet been revealed.
The former first round pick by the Minnesota Vikings, played the first four years of his career in Minnesota as a receiver and kick return specialist.
The 6-2, 220-pounder was drafted out of Tennessee as a speed burner at receiver, but he never lived up to that potential. He compiled 132 receptions for 1,316 yards (10.0 avg.) with seven touchdowns over 22 career starts.
He made his mark as a kick returner, averaging an astounding 30.
