Raiders Sign LB Derrick Moncrief To Futures Deal

The Raiders announced Friday that they’ve signed LB Derrick Moncrief to a futures contract for the 2020 season. 

Here’s the updated list of futures signings for the Raiders:

1. DE Kendall Donnerson
2. DE Ade Aruna
3. DB Jordan Brown
4. OL Kyle Kalis
5. C Erik Magnuson
6. WR Anthony Ratliff-Williams
7. RB William Stanback
8. DB Dylan Mabin
9. RB Mark Thompson
10. LB Nick Usher
11. LB Derrick Moncrief

Futures deals are essentially camp invites that will give players the opportunity to compete for roster spots during offseason workouts and training camp.

The Raiders actually tried Moncrief out last month so he was clearly on their radar as a potential addition. 

Moncrief, 26, wound up going undrafted out Oklahoma State back in 2017. He later signed with the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the CFL and spent the last three years in Canada.

During his three seasons with the Roughriders, Moncrief recorded 126 tackles, four sacks, five interceptions and a forced fumble over the course of 35 games.
