Raiders sign linebacker Germaine Pratt

The Las Vegas Raiders have signed linebacker Germaine Pratt of High Point, North Carolina to a contract according to Andrew Buller-Russ of Yahoo! Sports on Wednesday. The terms of the contract are for one year and worth $4.25 million.

Pratt is joining his second National Football League franchise. He was surprisingly cut by the Cincinnati Bengals. Pratt had spent the last six seasons with the Bengals. In 2024, Pratt had 143 combined tackles (80 solo tackles and 63 assisted tackles), five tackles for a loss, four quarterback hits, two interceptions for 26 yards, six pass deflections, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries for nine yards. Pratt’s interceptions in 2024 came in Bengals wins. The first came on October 13 in a 17-7 Bengals win over the New York Giants. Pratt’s interception was for 24 yards. Pratt’s second interception came on December 28 in a dramatic 30-24 Bengals overtime win over the Denver Broncos. Pratt’s interception was for two yards. In the win, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow made NFL history. He became the first quarterback to ever have seven consecutive games with 250 passing yards and three touchdowns.

In Pratt’s career, he has played in 96 games. He has 616 combined tackles (355 solo tackles and 261 assisted tackles), 32 tackles for a loss, 10 quarterback hits, seven interceptions for 42 yards, 23 pass deflections, seven forced fumbles, five fumble recoveries for one yard, and three and a half sacks.

Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills also signed a linebacker this week. They signed Shaq Thompson of Sacramento, California on Tuesday. Thompson had spent the last decade with the Carolina Panthers. This past season he had 35 combined tackles (19 solo tackles and 16 assisted tackles) , two tackles for a loss, and one quarterback hit. The quarterback hit came in a 36-22 Panthers win over the Raiders on September 22. Thompson only played four games in 2024 because of a torn Achilles.
