The Las Vegas Raiders had the worst rushing attack in the NFL last season under head coach Antonio Pierce and offensive coordinator Luke Getsy. The running back tandem of Zamir White and Alexander Mattison was not able to get anything done, so the team made changes this offseason.
Mattison was not brought back in free agency, and the team went out and signed veteran running back Raheem Mostert on a cheap deal. Mostert was a Pro Bowler in 2023 after he led the NFL in rushing touchdowns, and he has a relationship with offensive coordinator Chip Kelly as well.
