Description

The Las Vegas Raiders are quietly building something special this offseason, despite being labeled a rebuilding team. With Klint Kubiak at the helm and a surprise first-round pick in Fernando Mendoza, they’re facing one of the toughest schedules in the league — but if they can scrape three wins in their first eight games, they might just have a shot at the playoffs. A late bye, winnable games after the break, and even a potential Chiefs matchup in Week 18 could give them a fighting chance — even if it’s a long shot.

Raiders Rebuild: Mendoza & Kubiak Era | Las Vegas Raiders News

The Raiders are firing on all cylinders this offseason, shaking up their roster with a bold rebuild centered around rookie QB Fernando Mendoza, while veteran Kirk Cousins steps in as a savvy bridge quarterback. With offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak bringing Super Bowl-winning expertise, the team’s offense is poised for a fresh identity — but they’ll need to spread the ball wisely and unlock their young talent. A revamped offensive line, bolstered by free agent Tyler Linderbaum, and a strengthened defense signal serious investment. Training camp will be the ultimate test — can this new era click fast enough to challenge the tough AFC West? Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

episode Hemby’s Rise in Raiders RB Race | Las Vegas Raiders News artwork

Hemby’s Rise in Raiders RB Race | Las Vegas Raiders News

Ashton Jeanty is locked in as the Raiders’ lead running back, but the real drama is heating up behind him—especially for the RB3 spot. Dylan Laube currently holds that role, but undrafted rookie Roman Hemby, a bruising power back from Indiana with over 1,000 yards and 7 TDs in his final college season, is making a serious push. Hemby’s physical style, versatility as a blocker and receiver, and special teams experience give him a unique edge. With training camp starting July 28, Hemby’s preseason performance could redefine the depth chart—and possibly earn him a roster spot.

Raiders Fans Back Cousins for Now | Las Vegas Raiders News

Raiders fans are surprisingly on board with Kirk Cousins starting Week One—92% approve, showing a rare level of trust in the Kubiak-Cousins combo. But long-term confidence is more cautious: 46% are optimistic, 43% neutral, reflecting realistic expectations given Cousins’ injury history and career trajectory. Surprisingly, there’s little demand for the rookie to get a shot right away—fans seem willing to give Cousins a fair chance first.

Raiders Roster Moves & Global Future | Las Vegas Raiders News

Raiders training camp is heating up with rookies in and veterans on the way, as key signings like Jermod McCoy and Fernando Mendoza set the stage for roster decisions — including potential trade talks for Jackson Powers-Johnson if he can’t crack the starting lineup. The team’s rebuilding focus means young talent gets a shot, even if depth at OL and DT remains a concern. Free safety remains a question mark, with Treydan Stukes a potential dark horse despite his college background. At QB, Kirk Cousins is likely to start, but rookie Mendoza could see early snaps — and Aiden O’Connell’s camp performance might make him a trade chip. Meanwhile, the NFL’s global push is gaining steam, with the Raiders poised to return to international play as the league expands its worldwide footprint.

Raiders Punter Beats LeBron in 2026 Pay | Las Vegas Raiders News

In a wild twist of NFL math, Raiders punter A.J. Cole is set to earn more in 2026 than LeBron James—$4.5 million to LeBron’s $3.87 million. While LeBron’s legacy and endorsements dwarf Cole’s, the comparison highlights how team salaries can surprise even the biggest stars. Cole, with his NFL-record 48.5 yards per punt, brings elite value on special teams—though fans hope his workload shrinks as the Raiders’ offense improves.
