The Las Vegas Raiders are back at training camp. It's the first time we have talked to Antonio Pierce since OTAs, but, nothing has really changed.

The Raiders will have everyone at camp, well, almost everyone. The rookies have been at camp for a few days now, but the veterans are still in Las Vegas and will fly into Southern California on Wednesday to report for camp.

One veteran who signed with the team this offseason won't be there.

The Raiders had their media session in the afternoon around 1 O'Clock. Around 5:30, they posted the players that would be placed on a certain list. They tweeted out that Michael Gallup, the former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver, is on the retired list.

He was signed this offseason and was looked at as a real No. 3 or No. 4 wide receiver. But, maybe after OTAs, he felt differently. He is only 28 years old, which is why the move comes as such a surprise.

Gallup retired before even making it to camp. Obviously, you wish him the best in his future endeavors.
