Oakland, CA (Best E Casino) - The Oakland Raiders released running back LaMont Jordan on Friday. The 29-year-old rushed for just 549 yards on 144 carries in 12 games last season. The Maryland product broke the 1,000-yard plateau in his first season with Oakland in 2005 (1,025), but has since been riddled with injuries, playing in only 21 games the past two years. Through his seven-year career, the second-round pick of the New York Jets in 2001 has compiled 3,285 yards with 24 rushing touchdowns to go with 1,301 receiving yards on 158 receptions in 97 games.
