Raiders sign free-agent linebacker

The Raiders signed free-agent linebacker Kenny Young on Monday.

Young most recently was with the AFC West rival Denver Broncos, arriving last year through an in-season trade with the Los Angeles Rams. The 6-foot-1-inch, 235-pounder started 13 games between the teams last season, making 75 tackles, including two sacks.

Young, drafted in the fourth round in 2018 by the Baltimore Ravens out of UCLA, has 186 career tackles, including 5.5 sacks.

Also, the Raiders released linebacker Justin March, who started five games and played in 61 over six seasons.
