Raiders' Chris Collier: Gets promotion to active roster
Rotowire
Las Vegas signed Collier from its practice squad to the active roster on Wednesday.
Collier was added to the Raiders' practice squad back in November, and with Sincere McCormick (ankle) bound for injured reserve, the team saw fit to promote Collier ahead of Week 16. His quickest path to playing time could be on special teams, where he made the majority of his contributions with Baltimore earlier in the season.

Chris Collier: Joins Raiders' practice squad
Rotowire
Las Vegas signed Collier to its practice squad Wednesday.
Collier was waived by Baltimore ahead of Week 10, but he's already found another opportunity with a different team less than three weeks later. Both Alexander Mattison (ankle) and Zamir White (quadriceps) are tending to injuries, so it may not be long before Collier hears his name called up to the Raiders' main unit.

Chris Collier: Let go by Baltimore
Rotowire
The Ravens waived Collier on Tuesday.
With Baltimore waiving Collier, it signals that Keaton Mitchell (knee) could be activated from the PUP list ahead of Thursday's game against the Bengals. Collier served mostly as the Ravens' kick returner across his five regular-season outings, during which he accumulated 221 kick return yards. Assuming he clears waivers, Collier will look to catch on with a team in need of running back depth and someone who can contribute on special teams.

The Ravens elevated Collier from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Collier will be elevated for a second straight week to serve as Baltimore's No. 3 running back behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill. Collier played just one snap on special teams in Week 3 against the Cowboys, and he'll likely be limited to that kind of role for Sunday's game against the Bills.
