The Raiders signed WR/KR Marcus Thigpen to a contract on Wednesday, according to Bill Williamson.
- Williamson adds that Thigpen will likely get an opportunity to be the team’s kick returner.
Thigpen, 29, originally signed on with the Eagles as an undrafted free agent out of Indiana back in 2009. Since then, Thigpen has played for a number of teams including the Broncos, Dolphins, Patriots, Buccaneers and most recently for the Bills.
Buffalo later cut Thigpen loose before he eventually signed with the Colts a few days ago.
This season, Thigpen has appeared in four games and totaled 29 kick return yards and 47 punt return yards for the Bills.
