The Raiders and 49ers have agreed to a joint practice during training camp in Napa, Raiders senior executive John Herrera said,

No date has been announced, though the practice likely is to take place before the teams' exhibition game Aug. 8. The Raiders last participated in a joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys in 1998, when they met in El Paso, Texas. Before that, the Raiders traveled to Austin, Texas, for joint practices with the Cowboys on an annual basis.

In other news, the Raiders signed wide receiver Chaz Schilens on Thursday. The Raiders selected Schilens in the seventh round of the NFL draft in April out of San Diego State. He is the third of Oakland's five draftees to sign so far. Receiver Arman Shields and defensive end Trevor Scott remain unsigned but are expected to sign contracts before training camp begins Wednesday.
