Oghoufo

Miller was the Raiders’ sixth-round pick, and it seems very likely that the signal-caller will be back with Las Vegas on their practice squad. Tommy Mellott — a former college quarterback who is making the move to wide receiver — was also part of the cuts for the Raiders. The full list of players who won’t make the 53-man roster: aived DT Zach Carter, RB Chris Collier, DE Jahfari Harvey, WR Shedrick Jackson, LB Matt Jones, DT Treven Ma’ae, G Atonio Mafi, RB Sincere McCormick, DE Ovie Oghoufo, TE Carter Runyon, WR Justin Shorter, OL Laki Tasi, S Trey Taylor, CB Greedy Vance, T Dalton Wagner and S JT Woods, WR Alex Bachman, S Terrell Edmunds and TE Albert Okwuegbunam while Lonnie Johnson Jr. was placed on the injured list and designated for return.

With the Texas program looking to step into a new era, it seems Oghoufo (6'3/240) is taking the chance to be a part of that. In two years of play at Notre Dame, Oghoufo did not play or produce a whole lot. He earned just 22 tackles, 3 passes defended, and 2.5 sacks in his time at Notre Dame. Oghoufo is an early graduate, so he will be able to play right away. He has three years of playing eligibility remaining.
