Mark Davis willing to consider signing Richie Incognito
A Richie Incognito to the Oakland Raiders move is not exactly imminent, but Mark Davis says he would consider the possibility.
In comments published last week by NFL.com’s Mike Silver, Incognito expressed interest in playing for the Raiders. He cited his familiarity with some of the team’s coaches and said the team would fit his personality well.
Seemingly in response to Incognito’s interest in the team, Davis was asked whether he would have interest in signing the former Miami Dolphins offensive lineman. Though Davis deflected that question by saying that was something for team GM Reggie McKenzie to answer, ESPN’s Jeff Legwold reports Davis did say “I’d have to think about that,” when asked what he’d say if McKenzie approached him wanting to sign Incognito.
Like I said, it’s not like the Raiders are running out to sign Incognito, but this shows they’re at least open to the possibility.
Incognito may be crazy and trying to clean up his image following the bullying allegations involving Jonathan Martin, but his NFL career is not over. We have a strong feeling that he’ll be playing next season.
