News

The team's first-round draft pick Tony Lorick now admitted he had signed a contract with the Raiders after denying he had yesterday

However, he wouldn't elaborate or produce the signed document and said the team didn't have a copy

He further claimed to have returned both a $200 cash advance and a bonus check for $20,000 he had received from the team

He then denounced the Raiders' “fishy” and “high pressure” signing tactics

There was speculation that his college coach, Frank Kush of Arizona State, had become involved

The Colts said they had tried to sign Lorick on the 4th, but Lorick said he had agreed to terms with them on the 1st
