On the backs of acquiring running back Raheem Mostert, the Las Vegas Raiders lost a skill player immediately after.
According to Ian Rapoport, the Philadelphia Eagles are signing former Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant to a one-year, $2 million contract.

Bryant did not do much with the Raiders, firmly stuck on the depth chart behind two high draft picks in Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer. That position lead to Bryant only seeing 12 targets on the year, turning it into nine receptions for 86 yards. Needless to say, his departure changes little in terms of the big picture for the Raiders.
That said, losing Bryant offers somewhat of a challenge.
Earlier this offseason, the Raiders were shopping Mayer due to him being stuck behind Bowers on the depth chart. While the team can get an extra Day 3 draft pick out of the potential transaction, losing Mayer now means the Raiders have little behind Bowers. With Bryant now gone, the Raiders may have to start looking at alternative plans in the event Bowers gets hurt.
As one position on offense gains depth, another looks as though it is going to get a lot lighter.
