Linebacker Denzel Perryman is set to become a free agent after failing to agree to a long-term deal with the Las Vegas Raiders.

He has missed seven games due to injuries in the past two years while playing for the Raiders. As a result, the 30-year-old linebacker may have to settle for a one-year deal in free agency.
Nevertheless, Perryman is expected to draw interest from several teams around the NFL.
Over his eight-year career, Perryman has recorded 586 total tackles, six sacks, four forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, five interceptions and 11 passes defended across 96 games.
He is a former second-round pick by the San Diego Chargers in the 2015 NFL Draft.
