Rich Gannon Feels Bad For Some Of His Old Teammates Still On The Raiders

SB Nation's Joel Thorman of Arrowhead Pride is on the ground in South Florida, providing reports, commentary and impressions from Super Bowl week.

Former Oakland Raiders QB Rich Gannon spoke with our BigBlueShoe from Stampede Blue yesterday afternoon and was pretty honest with his feelings towards the current Raiders.

He admitted to BBS that they were in “disarray” and that he feels bad for some of his teammates that are still on the team.

So, it pains me to see how things are now. I still have some teammates, some guys like Shane Lechler, [Sebastian] Janikowski, and some of these guys I helped train and took under my wing when they first came into the building, I know they feel they really don’t have a chance.

Unfortunately for those type of guys, when they came in they were playing in big games, nationally televised, they were playing divisional games. They figured that was how it was. They haven’t gotten a sniff since. Now, I think they realize just how hard it is.

Check out Silver and Black Pride in the coming days for more on what Gannon had to say.
