Field Yates reports that the Raiders have placed WR Antonio Brown on the non-football injury list to open training camp. According to Yates, Brown’s injury is “very minor.”
Brown will still count against the Raiders’ 90-man roster and can be activated at any time.
Brown, 31, is a former sixth-round pick of the Steelers back in 2010. He was in the third year of his five-year, $72.71 million contract when the Steelers traded him to the Raiders back in March.
The Raiders later signed Brown to a new contract worth $50.125 million and includes $30.125 million guaranteed.
In 2018, Brown appeared in 15 games for the Steelers and caught 104 passes for 1,297 yards and 15 touchdowns. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 26 receiver out of 117 qualifying players.
