Griff Whalen: Reaches four-week injury settlement

Whalen (toe) reached a four-week injury settlement with the Raiders on Thursday, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

While eligible to sign elsewhere at the moment, the settlement will allow Whalen to re-sign with the Raiders following the conclusion of Week 4. Prior to landing on injured reserve, Oakland was hopeful Whalen could be of service in the slot.
