The Oakland Raiders have released veteran fullback Marcel Reece, according to multiple reports Monday.

Reece is set to come back from a performance-enhancing drug suspension, but has been replaced by Jamize Olawale on the roster.

The all-purpose weapon has spent all seven of his professional seasons with the Raiders, peaking statistically during a two-year stretch in 2012-2013 when he tallied five total touchdowns and over 1,300 total yards.

Reece's abilities as a receiver could land him another job, since there are few fullbacks who've matched his career production currently in the league.
