In what qualifies as the least surprising news in the history of the world ever, the Oakland Raiders appear to be taking steps to address their long-snapper position.
Former UMass long snapper Travis Tripucka tweeted Tuesday (via the Bay Area News Group) that he's headed to Oakland, presumably for a workout with the team. With the status of Jon Condo (concussion) uncertain and Travis Goethel, well, you know, the Raiders could need a fill-in snapper for Sunday's matchup against the Miami Dolphins.
Condo won't play this Sunday against the Miami Dolphins unless he is cleared by team doctors. He'll need to pass a series of tests for that to happen. Tripucka was waived by the St. Louis Rams on Aug. 27.
