  Thompson signed with the Raiders on Saturday. Thompson was let go by Seattle ahead of the 2023 NFL Draft and has been a free agent since.

Thompson totaled 64 rushing attempts for 225 yards and two scores across his first two NFL seasons (2019 and 2020) with Kansas City but hasn't appeared in a regular-season game since.
