Equipment Manager Bob Romanski
The Oakland Raiders have played at home eight times this season (including preseason) and prior to kickoff it's tradition that the Al Davis Memorial Torch is lit to honor him. The team has featured a multitude of former Raider greats and members of the organization who have been given the opportunity to light the torch in front of Raider Nation. Each participant has expressed their utmost gratitude and appreciation toward the Davis family and the organization.
