Raiders' Taiwan Jones: Candidate to return kickoffs

Jones appears to be the leading candidate to return kickoffs for the Raiders, Eddie Paskal of Raiders.com reports.

Jones is listed second on the team's running back depth chart, but with rookie DeAndre Washington impressing thus far throughout training camp, Jones is realistically the No. 3 option out of the backfield. At this point he might project to have more of a role in the return game, although Washington along with receiver Johnny Holton figure to be given opportunities on kickoffs throughout the remainder of the preseason.
