The Raiders have been very active on Wednesday in regards to their offensive line. The team traded away Rodney Hudson to the Arizona Cardinals for a third-round pick and also re-signed veteran guard Denzelle Good to a two-year deal.
They made another big deal on Wednesday, bringing back former Pro Bowl guard Richie Incognito, who they had released earlier this month. Incognito confirmed the deal via his Twitter account:

The terms of the deal have not yet been announced, but the Raiders are expected to bring back Incognito on a one-year deal. We will update this post as more information becomes available.
Incognito joined the Raiders in 2019 after he sat out the 2018 season. Over the last two years, he’s started 14 games, all of them, at left guard. He is expected to continue to start at that spot despite turning 38 in July. When he is healthy, he is among the best guards in the NFL.
While the Raiders appear to have their starting guards set with Good and Incognito, don’t be surprised if the Raiders add another one in free agency or in the draft. Both players are in their 30s and neither is a long-term solution. However, Good and Incognito should be a fine tandem in 2021.
