Out with the old and in with the ... old?
That’s said in jest, but on the surface, that’s the gist of the Las Vegas Raiders inking veteran linebacker Jaylon Smith to a contract this past Monday. The Silver & Black’s linebacker room was light on experience with veterans Elandon Roberts and Devin White as the current frontrunners at the position group.
The 29-year-old Smith adds another linebacker who has a bevy of games and starts and it’s a return to the desert as the Notre Dame product played for the Raiders back in 2023 (one game, two total tackles).
