Cappa agreed to a two-year, $11 million deal with the Raiders on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Cappa didn't take long to find a new home after being released by the Bengals on Monday. During his three-year run in Cincinnati, Cappa started at right guard in all 50 of his appearances and drew just six total penalties. He'll be a strong candidate to open the 2025 season as a starter with Las Vegas.
The Bengals released Cappa on Monday. The veteran from Humboldt State has been one of Cincinnati's top offensive linemen since signing with the team in 2022, starting all 50 regular-season games he appeared in. Cappa was likely a cap casualty, as the Bengals are expected to try and retain several key free agents this offseason, including B.J. Hill, Trent Brown and Mike Hilton. The 30-year-old offensive lineman is expected to be a sought-after player on the free-agent market.
Cappa (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against Cleveland. Cappa was diagnosed with a concussion following Cincinnati's Week 15 win over Tennessee. He was able to log a full practice Friday, and he's done enough to clear the league's five-step concussion protocols and will start at right guard in Sunday's AFC North showdown.
Head coach Zac Taylor stated Monday that Cappa entered the league's concussion protocols, Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Cappa feels good today, according to Taylor, but he'll still need to pass through the league's five-step protocols. If he's unable to do so, Cordell Volson may be in line to start at right guard against the Browns on Sunday.
