Las Vegas Raiders Sign QB Chase Garbers to Active Roster
The Las Vegas Raiders made a few more adjustments to their main roster ahead of their Week 17 game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday at Allegiant Stadium.
The team announced on Saturday the signing of quarterback Chase Garbers to the active roster from the practice squad.
The former California Golden Bear joined the Raiders as an undrafted free agent in May 2022.
Garbers saw some action during the preseason and will serve as the backup to new starting quarterback Jarrett Stidham for the last two games of the season.
The Raiders elevated two other young players from the practice squad for Sunday’s game, rookie tackle Sebastian Gutierrez and former USFL cornerback Ike Brown.
The Silver and Black have made extensive moves this whole week and below is a recap of what transactions the Raiders have made.
On Thursday, the team placed cornerback Rock Ya-Sin on the Reserve/Injured list.
A day before cornerback Ya-Sin’s move to IR, Raiders also placed defensive end Chandler Jones and linebacker Denzel Perryman on IR.
In a corresponding move, the team signed defensive end Isaac Rochell to the active roster.
The Raiders also signed linebacker Harvey Langi to the active roster from the practice squad.
Wide receiver Albert Wilson was released from the practice squad, making space to add defensive lineman Trent Harris and restoring offensive lineman Vitaliy Gurman to the practice squad.
On Tuesday, the team released guard Willie Wright and signed linebacker Austin Calitro to the practice squad.
The Raiders look to give several players an opportunity to showcase their talent toward the end of the season.
The Raiders will face the 49ers this Sunday, New Year's Day, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
That game kicks off at 4:05 p.m. EST/1:05 p.m. PST and can be seen on FOX.
