Raiders' Williams battles to regain starting job

NAPA -- Dan Williams was a 15-game starter for the Raiders last season at defensive tackle.

But as the team runs through its first four days of training camp, Williams continues to get his work with the second-team defense. Coach Jack Del Rio said he's seeing what he needs to from the seventh-year pro."Dan is doing good, working hard," Del Rio said. "He's doing everything he needs to do."But the player who is earning $7.35 million this year isn't currently in line to be a starter in a base defense that continues to show a 5-2 look.Instead, that has been Justin Ellis, the Raiders' fourth-round pick from 2014 who has started 23 games in his own right the past two years.
