Raiders Release Veteran Guard Alex Cappa, Clearing Cap Space

0:00On this March 6th, here's what's making headlines for the NFL. The Las Vegas Raiders released Veteran Guard Alex Kappa on Friday, joining other players cut before the New League year starts on March 11th. Kappa signed a two-year deal with the team last year. The move clears $5.01 million in salary cap space, though it leaves $1 million in dead money on the books. He played in every game during his only season with the Raiders and made eight starts. Over the previous three seasons, Kappa started 50 games for the Bengals. Before that, he had 46 starts across his first four years with the Buccaneers. Now a free agent, Kappa brings plenty of experience as teams gear up for roster changes across the league. This story is shared with support from our sponsor.
