Raiders Activating OT Trent Brown, Waiving DT Daniel Ross

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Raiders are activating RT Trent Brown from the exempt list on Monday and waiving DT Daniel Ross.

Brown has been on the COVID-19 list twice this year. He also had an incident with a pre-game IV that sent him to the hospital due to air that entered his bloodstream.

Brown, 27, is a former seventh-round pick of the 49ers back in 2015. He was traded to the Patriots in 2018 in a pick swap. 

Brown played out the final year of his four-year, $2.28 million contract before agreeing to a record four-year, $66 million deal that includes $36.75 million guaranteed with the Raiders last offseason. 

In 2020, Brown has appeared in two games for the Raiders and made two starts at right tackle.
