Former Arkansas OL Denver Kirkland joins Raiders' active roster
Former Arkansas OL Denver Kirkland left the Razorbacks after the 2015 season and declared for the NFL Draft.
The junior went undrafted and signed as a free agent with the Oakland Raiders.
On Friday, though, Kirkland was promoted to the Raiders’ 53-man roster ahead of Sunday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens, according to WholeHogSports.com.
With several offensive linemen battling injuries, the Raiders will give Kirkland a chance to show what he can do.
Oakland’s game against the Ravens is scheduled to start at 1 p.m. Eastern time on CBS.
