Antonio Pierce On Raiders Losing Josh Jacobs: ‘That One Hurt’
Raiders Newswire

22h ago
The Las Vegas Raiders made some additions in free agency this offseason that should help the team, but they also took some losses. Despite head coach Antonio Pierce and other Raiders players hoping for a return for running back Josh Jacobs it simply was not meant to be. Jacobs would sign a deal with the Green Bay Packers, ending his five-year tenure with the Raiders who drafted him 24th overall back in 2019. Pierce has always been someone unafraid to speak how he’s feeling and that was certainly the case when discussing the loss of Jacobs. According to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN, Pierce admitted ..read more

Antonio Pierce: Aidan O’Connell Has ‘Earned’ The Right To Compete For Starting Job
Raiders Newswire

The Las Vegas Raiders plan to return to the postseason next year, but head coach Antonio Pierce will need better quarterback play to do that. The team added veteran Gardner Minshew on a two-year deal in free agency and will almost definitely add another quarterback at some point during the 2024 NFL Draft, but the man returning from last year shouldn’t be forgotten either: Aidan O’Connell. The fourth-round pick out of Purdue took over as the starter midway through last season and certainly had his struggles, but he also showed signs of being a capable starter in this league. Regardless o ..read more

This season was a true coming-out party for Las Vegas Raiders star defensive lineman Maxx Crosby. While Crosby had already proven that he was one of the best linemen the NFL had to offer, it seemed like the 2023 season was when the rest of the football world took notice as to just how unstoppable he is. Someone else who apparently took notice was NBA icon Michael Jordan and the people over at Team Jordan. While primarily a basketball brand, Team Jordan also has representation on the football field, including Cam Jordan and Crosby’s Raiders teammate Davante Adams. And now Crosby finds himself ..read more

The Las Vegas Raiders franchise needed a reboot after the past couple of seasons, and team owner Mark Davis made sure not to repeat the same mistakes. Midway through the 2023 season, Davis fired former general manager Dave Zeigler and former head coach Josh McDaniels and replaced them with Tom Telesco and Antonio Pierce. Telesco and Pierce are now tasked with rejuvenating the Las Vegas organization, and the early returns have been promising. Pierce managed to lead the Raiders to a 5-4 record as the interim head coach, while Telesco made a splash in free agency by signing Christian Wilkinson ..read more

Even though the Las Vegas Raiders added veteran Gardner Minshew II to go along with promising second-year quarterback Aidan O’Connell, the team could still choose to add another player at the position through the draft. And Raiders legend Charles Woodson has an idea of who the ideal prospect should be. Woodson, of course, is a proud alum of the University of Michigan who finally got over the hump and won the College Football National Championship this season. And the man who led them there, quarterback J.J. McCarthy, could be someone the Raiders have their eye on with their first-round pick ..read more

Last year Netflix introduced a new sports documentary series entitled ‘Quarterback’ that took the sports world by storm.

With running back Josh Jacobs signing with the Green Bay Packers in free agency, the Las Vegas Raiders have a big hole at the running back position. As it currently stands, Zamir White is the team’s top running back and while he was excellent in starting the final four games of the season, more depth is undoubtedly needed. There are some interesting possibilities available in free agency at the running back position, and one of the more intriguing ones is Alexander Mattison, who has spent his entire five-year career with the Minnesota Vikings. According to our own Ryan Ward, Mattison has sig ..read more

Down the stretch of last season, the Las Vegas Raiders’ defense began to show some signs of growth and had some impressive showings under head coach Antonio Pierce. Now the franchise will look to build off that going into next season and field a dominant unit on that side of the ball. One area where they could certainly improve is their ability to create turnovers, particularly within the secondary. The Raiders had just 13 interceptions as a team in 2023, with no corner having more than two. As such, it makes sense that they are interested in one of the more decorated cornerbacks on the mark ..read more

Free agency has been a frenzy this season as several teams have made splash moves while the Las Vegas Raiders started to build out new head coach Antonio Pierce’s vision for the team.

The offense also got a facelift when they signed Garnder Minshew to a two-year deal and released Jimmy Garoppolo. Minshew is expected to compete ..read more
