The Las Vegas Raiders' defense has looked great at times during the 2025 NFL season, and awful at others. There is no better example of this than how they have performed the past two weeks.
In Week 5, they traveled to face the Indianapolis Colts and were without Eric Stokes and Germaine Pratt, who did not travel with the team for non-injury reasons. The unit had its worst performance of the season, as it allowed 40 points, including a stretch of six consecutive touchdown drives.
Pratt was released the following day; however, Stokes returned against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
