Field Yates of ESPN reports that the Raiders have re-signed S Nate Allen on Thursday, which comes just two days after they cut him loose.
Allen, 28, was entering the second year of his four-year, $23 million contract that included $11.8 million guaranteed when the Raiders released him in a move that freed up $5 million in available cap space.
Had the Raiders not released Allen, $4.9 million of his base salary would have become fully guaranteed, so they clearly wanted to keep him as a more reasonable price.
In 2015, Allen was limited to appearing in just five games due to a knee injury. He finished the year recording 11 tackles, an interception and two pass defenses for the Raiders.
