Raiders re-sign drafted rookie CB MJ Devonshire to the practice squad

After making the initial 53-man roster, MJ Devonshire found himself waived when the Raiders claimed two players off waivers from other teams. The hope was that the seventh round rookie would clear waivers and they could welcome him back into the fold as part of the practice squad.

Devonshire did indeed make it through waivers and the Raiders did re-sign him to the practice squad, keeping their entire 2024 draft class in-house.

Fellow seventh rounder Trey Taylor was placed on partial season injured reserve, while the six others are all on the 53-man roster along with four undrafted rookies as well.

Devonshire joins Sam Webb as the two cornerbacks on the practice squad.

His re-signing leaves one spot still open on the Raiders 16-man practice squad. They had likely hoped to fill that spot with Byron Young who had been waived at the same time as Devonshire, but Young was claimed off waivers by the Philadelphia Eagles.
