Raiders re-sign rookie camp standout WR to practice squad

Come the 53-man roster cutdown last month, Ramel Keyton was inside the bubble. A standout training camp and preseason earned the undrafted rookie a roster spot. But as often happens, other moves had to be made and Keyton ultimately lost a numbers game.

Keyton was waived Saturday before the Raiders Week 4 matchup with the Browns. He cleared waivers and today they re-signed him to the practice squad.

The former Tennessee wide receiver was opening some eyes in camp for the Raiders. And he made his first headlines with his standout performance in the team's camp scrimmage.

Come their final preseason game, Keyton put his skills on display for the rest of the league, when he led the team with four catches for 76 yards. With the rest of the NFL taking notice, they felt they needed to hold onto him rather than risk another team scooping him up.

Bringing him back Monday allows them to continue to try and develop him.
