Report: Raiders chances of keeping Asomugha “slim to none”


As we mentioned the other day, the Raiders essentially made a choice by signing Richard Seymour to a huge two-year deal.  They were recognizing they likely couldn’t keep cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha.
Michael Lombardi of NFL Network broke down Oakland’s chances of keeping their cornerback on Thursday’s Total Access.
“I think slim and none, and I would favor none,” Lombardi said. “Once Seymour’s deal was done, that eliminated Asomugha.”
SI’s Peter King wrote this week that Asomugha “wants to play elsewhere” and perhaps Oakland knew that when delving into their offseason plans and signing Seymour.
