Kristian Wilkerson: Back with Raiders on taxi squad
The Raiders signed Wilkerson to the practice squad Wednesday.
Wilkerson was on the Raiders' practice squad in 2023 and played 40 offensive snaps across two regular-season appearances. He finished the preseason with seven catches (on 13 targets) for 69 yards and one touchdown across three games, but it wasn't enough for him to crack Las Vegas' 53-man roster. Wilkerson could be promoted to the active roster during the regular season should any of the Raiders' wide receivers miss time.
