The Las Vegas Raiders are reportedly offering an olive branch to Josh Jacobs to get him to return to the team. For those living under a rock, the Silver and Black failed to reach a long-term contract this offseason with its star. Nonetheless, NBC Sports’ Chris Simms presented a theory about why the Raiders are open …
There was some baptism by fire for Raiders rookie Michael Mayer courtesy of Pro Bowl DE Maxx Crosby recently at training camp. You love to see it.
Stoic. Suave. Stylish. Pick your own superlative. Those are just a few labels Jimmy Garoppolo hears when his name comes up. The veteran quarterback is living up to the billing at Raiders training camp. His play is as advertised to this point.
