The same day the Raiders brought back cornerback Nevin Lawson on a one-year deal, they added another cornerback to the roster. The team has signed former Saints and Dolphins starting corner Ken Crawley on a reserve/future contract.

Crawley was most recently with the Dolphins, where he appeared in four games with two starters before being placed on injured reserve. Since Crawley was released from IR prior to the end of the season, he was eligible to be signed to a reserve/future contract as soon as the season was over.

The 6-1, 180-pounder was originally undrafted out of Colorado and signed with the New Orleans Saints. He made the roster out of camp and by his second season, he had become a full-time starter.

In total, he started 23 games in three full seasons in New Orleans. He had been signed to a one-year deal the following offseason, but was waived after just one game active and claimed by the Dolphins.

Crawley has 134 combined tackles (121 solo), 31 pass breakups and 1 interception in 43 appearances and 25 starts.

The team also added defensive end Kendal Vickers on a reserve/future contract.
