Blake Lynch, a 27-year-old linebacker, was recently signed to the Raiders' practice squad after being released by the Chargers. He has had a challenging career, with limited impact during his time in Los Angeles, where he recorded just four tackles in seven games, primarily on special teams. Lynch's journey through the NFL includes stints with the Vikings and Cardinals, where he spent significant time on practice squads without seeing much game action. He originally entered the league as an undrafted free agent in 2020 and has shown flashes of potential, having played in 20 games for the Vikings with 47 tackles and several defensive plays.

Blake Lynch has been released from the Chargers' practice squad as the team makes roster adjustments ahead of their Week 7 game. This move reflects the team's efforts to reinforce depth, particularly at linebacker, as other players, like Junior Colson, return to health.
