We've reached 73 days until the Raiders season opener at Foxboro against the Patriots, With our countdown at 73 days we take a look at who currently dons the number in Silver & Black and who has brought it the most distinction.
Booker is an undrafted rookie out of SMU. One of two defensive linemen the Raiders signed from the school following this year's draft along with Jahfari Harvey.
Hannah was the full time starting left guard for the Raiders for their 1983 Super Bowl season. That was his first of six seasons with the team. Injuries shortened his final few seasons.
He entered the NFL as a defensive end with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1977 and even started a full season there before transitioning to offensive tackle. He would be the Bucs starting right tackle for four seasons before joining the Raiders and moving to guard.
