The Las Vegas Raiders banked on their own players taking a step forward in 2024. That appears to be a good call.

The Raiders had to figure out who would be their third wide receiver and needed to explore acquiring a cornerback for depth, at least.

Instead, Coach Antonio Pierce is banking on wide receiver Tre Tucker and cornerback Jack Jones to carry heavy loads and their respective positions. Tucker is expected to be a bigger part of the offense in 2024, while Jones leads the defensive back group. While Tucker is still thriving off of go-routes and beating corners one-on-one downfield, it has worked well for the Raiders.

While Jones is not necessarily a ‘home-grown’ Raider, he quickly adapted to the Raiders’ culture and became a defining member of it.
