It’s hard to know exactly what is going on with Jackson Powers-Johnson and the Las Vegas Raiders right now. The second-round pick from the 2024 NFL Draft was regarded by most as the best center prospect in last year’s class, and in Week 3, he sat on the bench.
The Raiders have apparently moved on from the idea of him starting at center, which is puzzling. Pete Carroll gave a bizarre excuse as to why Powers-Johnson sat behind Alex Cappa in Week 3, and no one is really buying it.
But after a very poor showing by the offensive line against the Commanders, could we see Powers-Johnson back in the lineup this week?
