Earlier today the Oakland Raiders agreed to a one-year deal to bring back running back Darren McFadden. If you traffic in snark and sarcasm, you might note that they are unlikely to actually get a year’s worth of football out of McFadden due to his history of injury troubles.
It would appear that the Raiders are also aware of that fact, as they are interested in adding running back Andre Brown as well.
#Raiders may not be done with RBs after signing Darren McFadden. They also have interest in ex-#Giants RB Andre Brown, per source.

Brown has struggled to stay on the field due to some lingering leg injuries, but when he has played he has been fairly productive. He is certainly capable of making contributions in a timeshare.
At this point you might point out the fact the Raiders already have one injury-prone back, so why would they want two? But hey, we already covered that snark/sarcasm thing here.
