Here's what Reed said about the situation:Will someone step up at cornerback?The Raiders have two starters set with outside cornerand nickelbacklocked in as starters. The second outside cornerback spot, however, is up in the air. As it stands, it

Facyson and Bennett both struggled with their health and performance last season and Richardson is a raw rookie, so its easy to understand the concern. Rather than sign a one-year stopgap, the Raiders hope the coaching staff can develop someone already on the roster into a competent starter. If that bet doesnt pay off, the Raiders will have a significant weakne s on a defense that otherwise looks to be in great shape.All three of the
Jacob Bobenmoyer Jersey competitors for the No. 2 cornerback job carry their own concerns.Bennett had a bad rookie season that saw him get benched, Facyson is a career backup, and Richardson is a rookie, which makes him a total wild card.
