The Raiders are going into their first preseason game of the year on Thursday and one player that is expected to take the field is Alex Leatherwood. After a rocky rookie season, Leatherwood is now firmly in a camp battle for a starting spot on the offensive line with Brandon Parker.
After a few weeks of practice, it’s fair to say that Parker is ahead of Leatherwood right now. While Leatherwood has seen a lot of first-string reps, he’s also practiced with the second and third-team more often than Parker.
