Raiders Place CB Anusiem on IR

The Raiders announced Saturday that they've placed CB Chigozie Anusiem on season-ending IR. Anusiem injured his knee in the third quarter of Thursday night's preseason game against the Texans while on punt team duty, where he was dragged down from behind.

Anusiem, who played 54 special teams snaps in three games for the Raiders last season, was signed to the active roster in Week 15. He has also had stints with the Browns and Cardinals, appearing in four career games primarily on special teams. biznow.biz
