Oakland Raiders sign Sean Richardson of Green Bay Packers to offer sheet
The Raiders signed Green Bay Packers backup safety Sean Richardson to a restricted free-agent offer sheet on Tuesday. The Packers have until Monday to match the offer. Because Richardson was undrafted and received the low restricted free-agent tender of $1.542 million, the Raiders would not have to give Green Bay compensation if it declines to match.
It's a one-year, $2.55 million offer, a source with the Packers told ESPN.com.
Both the Raiders and the Packers are flush in salary-cap room at this point in free agency. Oakland, which has signed a total of 12 players this offseason, has $23 million in cap room, the fifth-most in the NFL. The Packers have $18 million, the seventh-highest in the league.
