Eric Kush
Player News
Raiders signed OL Eric Kush, formerly of the Browns.
Kush lasted just seven games before losing his starting job to Wyatt Teller last year. A swingman that can play multiple spots on the offensive line, Kush gives the Raiders veteran depth.
The Browns released Kush on Monday.
Kush started the first seven games in 2019, but he lost the job to second-year pro Wyatt Teller in Week 9. The team has decided to let Kush go and save $2.075 million in cap space in 2020. The 30-year-old likely will vie for a reserve role with another squad.
Kush took all the first team snaps at right guard during Friday's preseason loss to the Buccaneers, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports.
Browns head coach Freddie Kitchens confirmed that Kush will likely be the starter at right guard when the regular season opens. "There's always competition," Kitchens said. "I thought he did some things nice yesterday, but he's got to continue to get better. He's not a finished product by any stretch of the imagination. Eric will get the first shot of seeing what he can do, and so far, he's been doing very well. Not good enough yet, but he'll continue to get better to get there." He has out-performed Austin Corbett, a 2018 second-round pick, and earned the job.
Bears claimed Eric Kush off waivers.
Eric Kush was probably happy to hear that he would be headed to LA with the Rams this year, but it looks like after being released he will be heading back to the Midwest this time in Chicago.
