Friday the Oakland Raiders announced they had added free agent tight end Luke Willson to the roster, which puts him back in Tom Cable’s zone blocking system.
Willson spent the 2018 season with the Detroit Lions after spending the first five years of his career with the Seattle Seahawks. During his time in Seattle he played in the zone blocking scheme which helped the Seahawks to two Super Bowl appearances, and while Willson never put up the receiving numbers his build and athleticism hinted at when he was drafted, over time he developed into a quality blocker.
