The Las Vegas Raiders surprised the world by releasing Christian Wilkins on Thursday. His rehab for his Jones fracture in his foot did not meet the team's expectations, and he parted ways after one year.

The Raiders have moved forward and are focusing on the rest of training camp. They are getting ready to start the season under new head coach Pete Carroll. The Raiders have made a lot of moves this offseason that have put their team in a position to be successful.

New England Patriots' head coach Mike Vrabel confirmed when speaking to media Friday morning the Patriots would have conversations about bringing recently released former first round pick Christian Wilkins to New England.
