He’s also set to return to the field for his first meaningful NFL game since the end of the 2017 season when the Raiders take on the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.Incognito said Wednesday he expects the game will be a bit emotional for him after a year away from the game.“It’ll be emotional for me and my family Derek Carr Jersey White ,” Incognito said, via Michael Wagaman of the . “It’s been a long trip to get back here. We’re just checking another box.”Incognito’s last game was a playoff loss with the Buffalo Bills against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Jan. 2018. Since then, Incognito retired, then unretired. Demanded his release from the Bills, which he received, and pleaded guilty to a pair of incidents where he was charged with disorderly conduct.The Raiders still saw an opportunity by bringing him into the fold this offseason. The prior incidents led to his suspension for the first two games of the regular season.Incognito is trying to put all of that behind him and is excited to get back on the field with the Raiders this week.“The suspension’s behind me, all the negative stuff is behind me.

He didn’t have a full offseason or training camp like many Raiders players on the team. He just came in and started the rest of the season. He was pretty good too, all things considered. Now he’s lost some weight and is moving around well. Gruden said he is his most improved player this year. He has the tough task of often facing off against the Raiders’ top interior lineman in Rodney Hudson, but he still manages to get some pressure and run stops up the gut.Sleeper: Ethan WestbrooksThe sixth year veteran was signed a few days into camp and made some noise of late. Gruden decided he wanted someone who could practice right now and Ronald Ollie was injured on the second day of camp, so he was out and Westbrooks was in. The Oakland native has appeard in 63 games over five seasons with the Rams, including every game the past three seasons, so he is no scrub. The other day in practice, he had a pressure, and fought off Gabe Jackson to make a run stuff as well. Edge defenderStandout/sleeper: Maxx CrosbyIt’s hard to say whether he’s a standout or a sleeper, so I’m going to say both. Not to say he’s been THAT good, but he’s certainly stood out. Whether it’s his hustle in warmups and drills or his play in team sessions. He has been flying around making plays. They say control what you can control and that begins with hustle. He’s got that for days. As a fourth round pick with several players who could get playing time ahead of him Womens Bo Jackson Jersey , he is a bit of a sleeper.LinebackerStandout: Vontaze BurfictHe is a vocal leader who insists on constant communication. He even gives instruction to Derek Carr at times. He could run this defense in his sleep but to do it, he needs his fellow defenders to talk to him. It’s forcing some players who might otherwise be the quiet types to come out of their comfort zones. And that looks to be a very good thing. The other players on this Raiders defense can’t stop talking about how smart Burfict is and they all look to him for instruction both on the field and in the film room.Sleeper: Nicholas MorrowEvery year he stands out and this is his third season with the team. He is a sleeper mainly because he’s again relegated to backup for this team. This time it’s Brandon Marshall who runs with the first team ahead of Morrow. There was a cool moment following a team session in which there were two plays. It was DeAndre Washington vs Marshall and Doug Martin vs Morrow. Washington put a move on Marshall that froze him while Washington hauled in the pass and took off. Then Morrow stuck with Martin like glue, not falling for his fake and batted the pass down deep. Marshall is considered one of the best cover linebackers in the league. Morrow’s skills in that area is only well known among Raiders fans.CornerbackStandout: Lamarcus JoynerOn the first day of camp, Hunter Renfrow beat Joyner for a couple catches. He told Renfrow at that point that he wouldn’t be catching any more passes on him. And if he has, I have not seen it. Also, the one day that Antonio Brown participated in one-on-ones, the only Raiders cornerback to could hang with him was Joyner.Sleeper: Nevin LawsonA former starter with the Lions, he has looked quite good in camp thus far. He has had a few pass breakups, though no interceptions. Then again, no corners have. One day he had a couple pass breakups and one that he should have picked. Lions fans know this all too well with him. He has 25 passes defended the past four seasons Bo Jackson Jersey , but has never had an interception. Update: Well, this is awkward.SafetyStandout: Erik HarrisWhile Abram’s aggressive and nature gets talked about a lot, there haven’t been a lot of plays made by the safeties this camp. one who has intercepted a pass. Not just the only safety, but the only anyone. He also routinely shows the most hustle in drills and stays trying to rip the ball out of offensive players’ hands.Sleeper: Curtis RileyA 16-game starter last season in Tennessee, he has shown an ability to consistently be around the ball. He and Harris have been the second team safeties this camp behind starters Abram and Karl Joseph. In Sunday’s practice, Riley stuffed a Josh Jacobs run out right and later came on a blitz and fought through a block attempt by tight end Foster Moreau to get a sack on Nathan Peterman.See the standouts and sleepers on offense
