The raiders are sending him to NFL Europa (yeah, they changed the name slightly):

Raiders Allocate Five
March 8, 2007



NFL Europa's 15th season will kick off on Saturday, April 14, 2007, with a rematch of last season's World Bowl as the defending champion Frankfurt Galaxy host the Amsterdam Admirals - winners of the league title in 2005 - at Commerzbank Arena.

The Oakland Raiders have allocated five players overseas to participate in the 2007 NFL Europa season - LB Ricardo Dickerson, WR Rich Parson, DB Levonne Rowan, DE Dave Tollefson, and WR Lauren Williamson. These players were signed by the Raiders as free agents earlier this year.

Williams, a 6'3", 195-pound wide receiver, was signed by the Raiders in January of 2007 and will be playing for the Rhein Fire. While attending Liberty University, he had 70 receptions for 1,391 yards and eight touchdowns.

After completing their team physicals in Alameda, Calif., this week, they will be heading to Tampa, Fla., for the 2007 NFL Europa Training Camp along with 48 of the leading international players.

Opening day will include the Hamburg Sea Devils hosting the Cologne Centurions, and the Berlin Thunder visiting the Rhein Fire. The season will conclude on Saturday, June 16, 2007, when the top two teams face off in the World Bowl XV which will be played at Frankfurt's Commerzbank Arena on Saturday, June 23.

I DO have last years, but there has been many changes since then, I believe

(Carswell, Williams, McKay, Goodman, Harris, etc)

ok, I'll work on it.
