The Oakland Raiders announced on Monday that they have placed tight end David Ausberry on season ending injury reserve. The Raiders have promoted offensive guard Lamar Mady from the practice squad to the active 53 man roster.
Ausberry, who is in his third year from USC suffered a shoulder injury in the preseason. Ausberry hasn't made much of an impact for the Raiders thus far. In his first two seasons he caught nine passes for 106 yards. The Raiders lack a true threat at the tight end position, the starter, Jeron Mastrud has only one catch for 41 yards so far this year.
Lamar Mady, who replaces Ausberry was an undrafted free agent from Youngstown State. Mady will give the Raiders some much needed depth to an offensive line that is already very thin with some key lineman out with injuries. Now that Terrelle Pryor has suffered a concussion it is uncertain whether he will be able to go next week so the offensive line will need to be at its best because Matt Flynn is not as mobile as Pryor.
