Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

It’s not known whether Ruggs tested positive or was placed on the list as a close contact.

Also on Tuesday, the Raiders signed linebacker Vic Beasley to the active roster and designated defensive end Takk McKinley for return from injured reserve, starting a 21-day evaluation window on whether to activate him.

Wide receiver Marcell Ateman was added to the practice squad.
