Major competition looms at Raiders’ cornerback for 2021 season roster spots

The Las Vegas Raiders cornerback position is becoming one of the more fascinating units of any position group in the NFL.

We wrote the below post on April 19 after the Raiders added to their crowded cornerback group by signing veteran Rasul Douglas:

Since then, Las Vegas drafted slot cornerback Nate Hobbs of Illinois in the fifth round and signed veteran cornerback Casey Heyward, who played for new Las Vegas defensive coordinator Gus Bradley the past four seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Raiders now have nine cornerbacks who have a realistic chance of making the 53-man roster in September.
