Raiders deny deal with Chris McAlister
Posted by Mike Florio on September 18, 2009 8:39 PM ET
Signs have been pointing to the arrival of veteran defensive back Chris McAlister in Oakland, in part because: (1) McAlister has publicly said he'll be signing with a team; and (2) reportedly, McAlister has been telling friends that the team will be the Raiders.
Former Raiders player Jarrod Cooper, who now works for CSN Bay Area, recently reported that a deal is coming.
Coach Tom Cable said he knew nothing of the deal, which we'd expect him to say even if he did. On Friday, Raiders senior executive John Herrera called the report "totally untrue" and "nonsense," per Jerry McDonald of the Contra Costa Times.
So if something was in the works with McAlister and the Raiders, it apparently isn't.
