Earlier today, the Oakland Raiders made another change to a wide receiver group already undergoing a major transformation process: as reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the club released Seth Roberts today, its second leading wide receiver from a year ago in terms of receptions (45), yards (494) and touchdowns (2) as well as playing time (54.61%). Despite past production, Oakland’s offseason moves apparently have made Roberts expendable.
The 28-year-old now hits free agency and as a player released will not count against the compensatory draft picks formula if picked up by a new team.
