Overview
- Pratt did not travel to Indianapolis and was listed out with no injury designation before the Raiders’ 40-6 loss to the Colts.
- Head coach Pete Carroll announced the release Monday, saying the Raiders had "decided to go with the other guys" and that it was "time to go in a different direction."
- Pratt started the first four games and recorded 25 tackles and two passes defensed, drawing mixed evaluations with stronger coverage metrics than overall grades.
- He signed a one-year deal in June with about $3.75 million guaranteed; the move creates a little over $1 million in cap space and leaves a dead‑money charge.
- Carroll said Adams, Koonce and Snowden will absorb his role on defense, while Pratt becomes a free agent with extensive starting experience.
