Posted Aug 4, 2018
Ryan Switzer just knows how to score. Whether it’s as a wide receiver or as an electric return man, the former North Carolina Tar Heel just has a knack for finding the end zone, and now as he enters his first year as an Oakland Raider, the team is hoping he’ll be able to do that in myriad ways. During his college career, Switzer tallied nearly 3,000 receiving yards and 19 touchdowns. (Oakland Raiders)
