| Player Notes |
| August 13, 2008 X-Rays taken on the injured foot of Oakland Raiders corner Nnamdi Asomugha were negative, according to the Oakland Tribune. "Right now it hurts when I walk," Asomugha commented. "It definitely hurts breaking on the football. I?ll continue to be limited in whatever I?m doing but I don?t think it?s a big issue." |
| August 12, 2008 Oakland Raiders cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha injured his foot during Tuesday's practice, according to the Oakland Tribune. (Nnamdis) foot was bothering him about a third of the way through practice, so we sent him to get an X-ray, coach Lane Kiffin said. |
| August 3, 2008 With his training camp started thanks to a one-year agreement signed the day before it started, defensive back Nnamdi Asomugha is working as a standout performer thus far in training camp, according to the Mercury News. |
| July 23, 2008 Despite rumors of a pending holdout, Oakland defensive backfielder Nnamdi Asomugha has signed the one-year franchise tender offer put forth by the Raiders, allowing him to join training camp, according to Raiders.com. |
| July 19, 2008 Sources in Oakland say dont be shocked if CB Nnamdi Asomugha holds out from the first couple of weeks of training camp to express disappointment with his contract situation. |
| July 15, 2008 The Oakland Raiders and Nnamdi Asomugha could not agree on a long-term contract, meaning the cornerback will play the year under the franchise tag, according to the Associated Press. |
| July 15, 2008 Neither the agent for cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha nor the Oakland Raiders are interested in public discourse, but the Oakland Tribune doesnt expect a multi-year contract to be in place before todays deadline for signing franchise free agents. |
| March 16, 2008 With the Raiders reportedly working on a deal to add all-pro CB DeAngelo Hall to the roster, the discussion may turn to the effects on young stud CB Nnamdi Asomugha, according to ProFootballTalk.com. For Hall to come to Oakland, the team will have to agree to a long-term, high dollar contract (rumored to be in the neighborhood of $10 mil). On the other hand, the Raiders designated Asomugha, viewed by many as one of few corners in the NFL worthy of discussion as the top player at the position, as their exclusive franchise tag player. Because of that decision, Asomugha will be paid the average of the top five contracts in the NFL at the position... and now the Raiders are looking to add one of those huge contracts to the equation. As a result, many are watching to see if the Hall signing comes to fruition, for the Raiders may, in essence, be forced to revoked that tag as they will no longer be able to afford both players. If that happens, the young CB becomes an unrestricted free agent and it will be free-agent bedlam as teams line up to throw offers at Nnamdi Asomugha. Stay tuned. |
| February 20, 2008 Nnamdi Asomugha, who was a first-round pick of the Oakland Raiders in 2003, has been franchise tagged to the tune of one-year at $9.465 million, according to ProFootballTalk.com. This move was expected, as the shutdown cornerback would have been one of the hottest commodities on the open market if he hadn't been tagged. |
| February 7, 2008 Nnamdi Asomugha is expected to be the victim of the Raiders franchise tag according to NFL.com. The talented cornerback is expected to be one of the hottest commodities on the open market if he were not tagged. The franchise cornerback tag this year is $9.465 million. But Oakland knows that on the open market, Asomugha might be the No. 1-rated free agent. |
