Seattle QB Tavaris Jackson struggles again
Sunday, August 21, 2011, 8:21am

The Minnesota Vikings were reunited Saturday night with an old friend, new Seattle quarterback Tarvaris Jackson. They didn't treat him very kindly.

Jackson was running for safety most of the night and struggled as the Vikings beat the Seahawks 20-7. He completed 11 of 21 passes for 75 yards and one interception that deflected off receiver Golden Tate’s hands and was returned for a touchdown by cornerback Marcus Sherels.

New Minnesota quarterback Donovan McNabb led a long drive that ended in the first of Ryan Longwell’s two field goals for Minnesota.

McNabb led a 13-play drive that started at the 1 and ended in Longwell’s 36-yard field goal. Longwell added a 34-yarder.

McNabb was 6 of 8 for 81 yards. Tristan Davis added a 35-yard TD run with 2:09 left for Minnesota’s first offensive touchdown of the preseason.

Steve Corkran thinks the Raiders are going to be just fine with Kevin Boss at tight end now that Zach Miller is with the Seattle Seahawks. That much became evident in Boss’ first practice since signing with the Raiders on Friday.

Boss is tall, fast, and he has sure hands. There’s no reason to think that he won’t at least double the 30 receptions he averaged in his four seasons with the New York Giants.

Raiders beat writer Steve Corkran predicted the starting Raider:

On offense, Jason Campbell is back as the starting quarterback. Darren McFadden is the running back, Marcel Reece the fullback, Kevin Boss the tight end, Chaz Schilens and Louis Murphy the leading candidates at the wide receiver spots.

Oakland Raiders coaches are excited to see wide receiver Chaz Schilens healthy in camp. He made only five receptions last season because of a knee injury that knocked him out of 11 games, but the team still believes he can be a solid contributor in the passing game.

With tight end Zach Miller having departed in free agency, quarterback Jason Campbell will be looking for a new top target, and Schilens might be one to watch.

RB Michael Bush Reports to Raiders Camp

All present and accounted for. Oakland Raiders running back Michael Bush joined the Raiders in Napa, California on Saturday.

Bush’s arrival means he either signed a one-year, $2.6 million tender as a restricted free agent or he received a deal with more years and more money.

The Raiders’ second-leading rusher with 655 yards, Bush has made no comments regarding his absence from camp, although it was assumed it was contract related.

Bush was the only restricted free agent who hadn’t reported to his team.

The New York Giants lost a key player when tight end Kevin Boss agreed to join the Oakland Raiders on Friday.

Boss reached an agreement on a four-year, $16 million deal, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The Raiders were looking for a tight end after losing Zach Miller to the Seahawks. The Raiders expect to complete the signing later Friday.

Boss' asking price was clearly too high for the Giants, who have been trying to re-sign him and wide receiver Steve Smith.

After losing TE Zach Miller, the Raiders worked out free agent Kevin Boss on Wednesday.
