Raiders shut down trade interest regarding young player
© Jasen Vinlove-USA Today SportsEarlier this week, the Las Vegas Raiders wound up being placed in some slight trade drama.
When the Miami Dolphins traded cornerback Jalen Ramsey and tight end Jonnu Smith to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday, they opened up two holes on their roster than needed to be filled quickly. Dolphins beat writers immediately pitched the idea of Raiders tight end Michael Mayer, seeing as the team had expressed interest in him before. With Brock Bowers keeping Mayer down the depth chart, they believed the Dolphins had a clear shot to buy low on an ascending talent.
The Raiders, however, were quick to dismiss the idea of moving on from Mayer.
