Young has played in the NFL for 10 seasons for five different teams, for a total of 92 games and 21 starts. He appeared in four games with San Francisco last season.
Turning 33 next month, Young will go to training camp with a chance to make the team as a reserve, but he is far from a lock to make the roster.
Meanwhile, the Raiders cut some players, including backup quarterback DeShone Kizer, linebacker Te’Von Coney and tight end Paul Butler.
Also, per the Raiders transactions list, they have waived TE Paul Butler, LB Te’von Coney, DE Kendall Donnerson, QB DeShone Kizer, OL Kyle Kalis and LB Quentin Poling.
