Baker to Raiders

By Mike Reiss, Globe Staff December 19, 2007 10:00 PM

Safety Rashad Baker, who was waived by the Patriots on Tuesday, has been claimed by the Oakland Raiders.

A four-year veteran, the 5-foot-10, 198-pound Baker played in seven games for the Patriots this season. He played sparingly on defense, with his primary contributions coming on special teams.

The Raiders inherit Baker's contract which runs through the 2008 season.

  1. It's good to see some of the players that didn't quite make it here, get a chance with another team, to stay in the NFL.
