NAPA, Calif. (AP) – Menelik Watson’s rookie season proved to be mostly a waste.
Watson arrived at his first training camp with the Oakland Raiders with an injured calf that forced him to miss much of the preseason. A knee injury just before the beginning of the regular season cost Watson a shot at a starting job.
By the time Watson was finally healthy he got only limited playing time, mostly as a sixth offensive lineman, as he couldn’t overcome all the missed time.
That wasn’t exactly what the Raiders were counting on from a second-round pick, and it certainly wasn’t what the raw Watson needed since he only played two seasons of football before entering the NFL.
