The Raiders signed wide receiver/return specialist Trindon Holliday Wednesday, and in a corresponding move, waived/injured rookie WR Andre Debose with an Achilles injury.
Holliday joins the Silver and Black primarily as a return specialist, as he has totaled 82 punt returns for 769 yards (9.4 avg.) and 54 kickoff returns for 1,455 yards (26.9 avg.), with a total of four return touchdowns (two punt, two kickoff) during his 33 career games.
The LSU product was originally drafted in the sixth round (No. 197 overall), by the Houston Texans in the 2010 NFL Draft, and has since spent time with the Denver Broncos, New York Giants, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and most recently the San Francisco 49ers.
