Ryan Switzer

Ryan Switzer could see expanded role with Raiders

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Ryan Switzer has a "real chance" to earn a role in the offense, NBC Bay Area believes.

What It Means:

"Ryan Switzer has really caught my eye," head coach Gruden said this offseason unprompted. "Punt returner, kick returner, he’s come in and been a force as a slot receiver. He’s really done well." Switzer earned just seven targets in the threadbare Cowboys' receiving group in 2017. He'll have to make a special teams impact before getting a real offensive role.

Our models currently project Switzer for 90 receiving yards and 0.6 touchdowns on 7 receptions. That would lead to a fantasy projection outside the top-100 at the position league-wide, and just fifth on his own team.
