Las Vegas Raiders Release Former Bengals Linebacker Germaine Pratt
Germaine Pratt appeared in four games, recording 25 tackles before the Raiders released him amid a poor start and internal team friction, coach Pete Carroll said.
- On Monday, coach Pete Carroll announced that linebacker Germaine Pratt was let go by the Las Vegas Raiders following his absence from the team's trip to face the Indianapolis Colts, a game the Raiders lost 40-6.
- The decision was made after the team’s defense, which began the season well, allowed 40 or more points in two out of their last three matchups.
- Pratt signed a one-year contract with Las Vegas for $4.25 million in June and participated in four games, during which he accumulated 25 tackles and made four plays that stopped the run.
- Coach Pete Carroll stated during the press conference that the team decided it was the appropriate moment to make a change regarding the roster.
- With Pratt leaving, the team will turn to Malcolm Koonce, Jamal Adams, and Charles Snowden to fill his role, a move that frees up about $1 million in salary cap space and sends Pratt into free agency to search for a new opportunity.
