The Las Vegas Raiders have not given fans much to be confident about five weeks into the 2025 NFL season. The roster construction has been awful, the coaching staff has not put players in the best position to succeed, and the players have done little to maximize their opportunities.
There have also been several off-the-field issues that the fanbase has not received much information about, as three players -- Christian Wilkins, Amari Cooper and Germaine Pratt -- who figured to have big roles on the team, are no longer on the roster.
While the assumption was that the veteran coaching staff would change the culture, that has simply not been the case.
