Legendary Raider thinks team may axe a player fans assumed was safe

With a shift toward a run-oriented offense under head coach Pete Carroll, and with Chip Kelly calling the plays, the configuration of the Las Vegas Raiders' starting offensive line has been a conversation topic going back to OTAs. During training camp, however, the team made a major change.

Jordan Meredith, a guard by trade, seems to now be the starting center. Jackson Powers-Johnson, the assumed starting center heading into this year, has shifted to right guard. Most important is having the best five players out there, but after the preseason opener, Carroll stoked some concern about the situation.
