Summary

- Chris Collier was waived with an injury designation.
- Kuntz was a 2023 seventh-round pick by the Jets.
The Las Vegas Raiders have bolstered their tight end position by signing Zack Kuntz. This roster move was announced on Saturday. In parallel, the team waived running back Chris Collier, designating him with an injury.
Kuntz entered the league as a 2023 seventh-round selection by the New York Jets. He spent the majority of his initial two seasons on the practice squad. However, he did make appearances on the active roster for two games during that period.
During his brief stints on the active roster, Kuntz was on the field for three offensive snaps and ten special teams snaps. He now joins a competitive tight end room in Las Vegas, which includes Brock Bowers, Michael Mayer, Ian Thomas, Albert Okwuegbunam, Carter Runyon, and Patrick Gurd.
Collier had previously contributed to the Raiders' backfield, carrying the ball five times for 12 yards across three games played in 2024. His departure due to injury creates an opening on the roster.
