Veteran wide receiver Brandon Johnson was signed by the Raiders shortly after being released by the Steelers. In a corresponding move, the Raiders placed wide receiver Corey Rucker on injured reserve. Johnson did not play in any games last season, but he recorded 25 catches for 326 yards and five touchdowns with the Broncos in the previous two years. Rucker, who signed with the Raiders after going undrafted from Arkansas State, is now on injured reserve.
