The Las Vegas Raiders have struggled to begin the 2025 NFL season, as they come out of their Week 8 bye with a 2-5 record and are seemingly already out of contention. There have been very few positives, as the roster has plenty of holes and the coaching staff has severely underwhelmed.
While the franchise revamped the roster on both sides of the ball during the offseason, most of the moves have simply not worked out. One pickup that has been well worth it, however, is cornerback Eric Stokes, who was signed to a one-year, $3.5 million prove-it deal in March.
