Under a cool Tuesday morning in Napa, the Raiders took to the practice field for their 13th time this training camp. Among a team filled with huge athletes, it was the little guy that stood out.
One of the surprises from the Raiders preseason opener against the Lions was receiver Griff Whalen taking snaps with the starters while Ryan Switzer played with the second-string offense. That continued Tuesday morning as Whalen was the starting slot receiver with Jordy Nelson and Amari Cooper on the outside.
