About how Colt has to make the most of his chance with the Raiders, his agent Ryan Tollner said:
"He has an opportunity. Now he has to make the most of it." (HSA)
HSA Note: "Brennan was brought in for a tryout yesterday morning. After receiving good reviews, he was offered a contract.Tollner said Brennan signed the "base" one-year deal yesterday afternoon. Brennan participated in the Raiders' evening workout at their training facility in Napa, Calif."
HSA Note: "Because he was inactive in 2009, he is credited with one year of NFL experience. He will be paid the second-year minimum salary of $395,000 if he is on the Raiders' roster this regular season.Brennan, who will turn 27 this month, faces a steep challenge. There are four other quarterbacks on the Raiders' roster, each with considerably more pro experience than Brennan."
Tollner said that Oakland could consider Colt as:
"the young guy who hasn't had his shot and now wants to make the most of it. ... That's what makes this opportunity appealing." (HSA)
HSA Note: "During UH's Pro Day in March 2008, Ted Tollner -- Ryan Tollner's uncle -- coached Brennan during passing drills. Ted Tollner is the Raiders' passing-game coordinator."
About Colt receiving tutorial sessions from Oakland's offensive coaches, Ryan Tollner said:
"It seems they want to give him a look." (HSA)
