The Las Vegas Raiders took a blow Monday when they saw a top free-agent target go elsewhere, but stay in the AFC West.
Cornerback J.C. Jackson (who was with the New England Patriots with the new Raiders’ brass) has reportedly agreed to a lucrative contract with the Los Angeles Chargers, according to NFL Media.
The Raiders were reportedly involved in the Jackson pursuit. The Raiders, though, can still strike it big with a quality cornerback signed. They are reportedly involved with both Stephon Gilmore (who also spent time in New England) and Darious Williams of the Los Angeles Rams.
