Davis talked Walker out of retirment

Chris Mortensen of ESPN.com has just reported that Oakland Raider owner Al Davis talked Javon Walker out of retirement as late as last week. Walker, whom apparently was struggling with his own performance in training camp, offered to reimburse Oakland for the eleven million dollar signing bonus he received.

This comes after Bill Williamson of ESPN.com reported yesterday that Walker was off to a slow start, apparently Raiders coach Lane Kiffin has been critical of the receiver in camp.
