Jalen Richard, Theo Riddick Placed On COVID List
3 years agoLas Vegas Raiders running backs Jalen Richard and Theo Riddick have been placed on the league's reserve/COVID-19 list, which will keep both out of training camp for the time being. With Kenyan Drake on the non-football injury list, the Raiders are left with just one of their top four backs at camp in Josh Jacobs. This could be a chance for a pair of rookie UDFAs, Trey Ragas and Garrett Groshek, to fight for a roster spot, especially Riddick's spot. Jacobs is rarely used as a receiving back, so if one of the duo impresses, they could be able to find a small role with this team in 2021, though playing behind Jacobs and Kenyan Drake complicates things, as does the coaching staff's love for Richard.
