In a quick turnaround from last night’s reports that the Oakland Raiders had sent a letter to Richard Seymour requesting his presence within five days of receiving it, the team and Greg Papa are denying that any such action took place. According to SF Gate:
Raiders Say No Letter Has Been Sent To Seymour
Several Raiders officials said no letter has been issued to Seymour, who has yet to report to the Raiders since the Patriots traded him Sunday for a 2011 first-round pick.Papa himself said at Raiders practice he never said it. He described it as a miscommunication after explaining to a co-employee what scenarios the Raiders have before them.
The original story reporting that the letter has been sent has been deleted, and at this point no one is sure exactly what is going on. ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting that the letter is written and may or may not be sent today or tomorrow. He blames conflicting reports from different sources for the confusion. As do we.
