Raiders training camp: Intense backup running back battle

It hasn’t been an ideal training camp for veteran Las Vegas Raiders reserve running back Jalen Richard.

First, Richard complained about the NFL’s stance on unvaccinated players on a Twitter account that no longer exists. Then, the sixth-year veteran went on the NFL”s COVID-19 list, Now, he is in the middle of rehabbing a foot injury that reportedly could keep him out another week or so.

Saturday night, the hits kept coming for Richard when fellow Raiders’ backups Trey Ragas and B.J. Emmons both performed well in Las Vegas’ 20-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks at Allegiant Stadium.
