Raiders release veteran TE Albert Okwuegbunam

The Las Vegas Raiders are releasing veteran tight end Albert Okwuegbunam, per Adam Schefter.

Okwuegbunam's release trims Las Vegas to a tight end room of Brock Bowers, Michael Mayer and Ian Thomas on the initial 53. A former Denver draft pick with intriguing athletic traits, Okwuegbunam now becomes a vested veteran free agent rather than a waiver candidate, free to land with any club looking for tight end depth.
