Raiders cornerback Gareon Conley had a disappointing rookie season Clayton Fejedelem Jersey , playing in just two games after Oakland took him with the 24th overall pick in the 2017 NFL draft. But this year will be different.
That’s the word from Raiders coach Jon Gruden, who says Conley is ready to develop into the kind of elite player the Raiders thought he would be.
“He’s had a terrible injury he had to rehab from, he’s had to change coaches, learn a new system Charles Clay Jersey , and it’s been a slow and steady process. But, man, is he a good player. When he’s feeling good, you can see why we picked him Joe Mixon Jersey ,” Gruden said, via ESPN.
Raiders defensive coordinator Paul Guenter said Conley looks like he’s picking up the mental side of the game.
“Most importantly, he’s out there and he’s doing good,” Guenther said. “He’s really understanding the little details of everything: the press techniques that we’re teaching; some of the different coverages Derek Newton Jersey , we have a lot of different coverages in now. He’s done a really good job for us.”
The only question left for Conley is whether he can get healthy and stay healthy after last year’s shin injury. The Raiders’ coaches are optimistic that he can.
The New York Jets have re-signed offensive lineman Dakota Dozier.
The Jets also announced Friday that offensive lineman Brent Qvale has signed his restricted free agent tender, worth $1.907 million this year.
Both Dozier and Qvale add depth and versatility to an offensive line that includes newcomers Spencer Long and Travis Swanson.
Dozier was a fourth-round draft pick of the Jets in 2014 out of Furman. He set career highs last season with 14 games played with three starts. He has appeared in 32 career games for New York with five starts.
Qvale was signed by New York as an undrafted free agent out of Nebraska in 2014. He has started 12 games for the Jets, including seven at right tackle, four as a jumbo tight end and one at right guard.
