The Raiders elevated Butler to their active roster Saturday.
Scouting Report
The defensive lineman has the strength and athleticism to play in either one-gap or two-gap schemes. He has the lateral speed to disrupt zone-blocking schemes, and his motor is always on to keep him near the ball. Needs more lower-body strength and to improve his hand usage for optimum production in the NFL. He also has to avoid being overly aggressive, which can take him out of running plays.
Long Range Potential: Rotational defensive lineman.
