89. Nathan Palmer

Nathan Palmer is a career journeyman, who made his way into the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2012. Coming to the NFL out of the MAC as a former Northern Illinois starter at wideout.

Since then, Palmer has been a member of six different teams — the Raiders being his seventh — but mostly as practice squad wide receiver. Failing to earn a role on any of the handful of teams he has played on in the past four years.

Palmer is 5’11, 195 lbs., and has appeared in five games, recording one career catch. With the Raiders returning all of their receivers from 2015 to this year’s roster, don’t expect the veteran Palmer to be much more than a camp body this summer.
