Embattled former Miami Dolphins guard Richie Incognito may have a future with the Oakland Raiders, though team owner Mark Davis said he would have to give a lot of thought about signing him after he was entrenched in a bullying scandal with former Dolphins teammate Jonathan Martin.

Incognito, who is a controversial figure in the wake of the Ted Wells report on the bullying scandal and locker room behavior within the Dolphins organization, said he hopes to return to the NFL and ESPN reports that he has named the Dolphins and Raiders as potential landing spots.
Davis spoke about the possibility of signing Incognito at the NFL owners meetings on Monday and said, "Ask [general manger] Reggie [McKenzie]" when prompted about the possibility of signing the controversial guard.
Raiders potentially moving to Los Angeles?
He was then asked what would happen if McKenzie or coach Dennis Allen approached him about potentially signing Incognito.
"I'd have to think about that," Davis said, according to ESPN.
Davis is currently focused on helping the Raiders get a new stadium in Oakland after he told CSN Bay Area that he would consider moving the team to Los Angeles if a new stadium wasn't planned soon. He was asked at the meetings if the fans should worry about the team leaving for L.A.
"I don't know how to answer that," Davis said initially before clarifying, per ESPN. "No, not at this time. "We're trying to get something done in Oakland. We'll see what happens there. If Oakland doesn't happen, then we'll go from there."
It remains to be seen where the publicly-smeared Incognito ends up, but Oakland could very well be a destination for the guard.
