In need of defensive line reinforcements, the Raiders signed defensive tackle Damion Square off the Bears’ practice squad and will add him to the 53-man roster.

The need for Square is the result of injuries to defensive tackle Gerald McCoy and defensive end Yannick Ngakoue. McCoy suffered a knee injury and Ngakoue a hamstring injury in the Raiders’ Monday night win over the Ravens. Their status for Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers is uncertain.

By Vincent Bonsignore / RJ

The Raiders have no immediate needs at linebacker, but they should address the position in the later rounds of the NFL draft or with undrafted free agents.
