The Las Vegas Raiders made countless changes to their defense this offseason, and the secondary, in particular, is an almost unrecognizable unit. Jakorian Bennett, Decamerion Richardson and Isaiah Pola-Mao are the lone returners who played any significant role in 2024.
Pete Carroll is confident in his ability to develop young players with high-end traits, so that is exactly who new general manager John Spytek brought into the building. Free agents like Eric Stokes and Lonnie Johnson Jr., as well as third-round rookie Darien Porter, all fit into this category.
Porter has been working with the starting defense in Las Vegas throughout the offseason program and into the preseason.
