The Raiders are evaluating several players, including Tre Tucker, Dareke Young, and rookies Malik Benson and Jonathan Brady, to improve their return game under special teams coordinator Joe DeCamillis
Across 17 games in 2025, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker hauled in 57 receptions for 696 yards and five touchdowns on 92 targets. Following the Raiders' midseason trade of veteran wideout Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars, Tucker emerged as his team's WR1. Entering 2026, Tucker could find himself in a similarly prominent role. The Raiders added wideouts Jalen Nailor and Dareke Young in free agency, but neither profiles as a particularly high-volume target-earner. However, Las Vegas should get more out of superstar tight end Brock Bowers after he battled through an injury-marred 2025 campaign. Tucker's underlying metrics also remained uninspiring despite his increased role last season, as he managed just a 18.6% target share and averaged a subpar 1.19 yards per route run. The 25-year-old is entering a contract year and may not be in the long-term plans of the new coaching staff in Las Vegas. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore selling high on Tucker

In the theme of reconnecting former teammates, the Seattle Seahawks drafted Jalen Milroe’s former Alabama teammate Emmanuel Henderson with their sixth-round pick . They have done this before, reuniting Grey Zabel and Jalen Sundell , Mason Richman and Beau Stephens, Jadarian Price and Rylie Mills . Now, Milroe will be able to help Henderson get situated with the Seahawks. How will Henderson fit within the culture Mike Macdonald is building with this current iteration of the team? With the “Run it Forward” mindset that Mike is trying to set for the team, let’s take a look at Henderson. Over his four-year collegiate career, Henderson did not put up gaudy numbers in yardage and touchdowns: 862 yards, five touchdowns , longest being 93 yards, which is nothing to scoff at. He averaged 17.2 yards per reception, which is great. Most of the yards came in his fourth year when he played for the University of Kansas. Prior, he played three years at Alabama but was never really able to carve out a role, though with his four catches in 2024 he averaged more than 20 yards per reception. Henderson was also a contributor in the return game, averaging 22.8 per return with one touchdown in 2025. This type of profile is one Seahawk fans will be familiar with. Players like Tyler Lockett , Dareke Young , and Rashid Shaheed are a few examples of players who with the Seahawks contributed to the receiving game and return game. Henderson figures to be a contributor on special teams, and stated that special teams is a big part of his game . Coach Mike wants players who are leaders and are hard workers, not letting outside distraction nor ego get ahead of what’s best for the team. Henderson is that kind of player. As the oldest of six siblings, he has been a leader in his family, and was a role model for his siblings. Through his times at both Alabama and Kansas, he worked hard every practice to make a name for himself, moving from running back in high school, to wide receiver at Alabama, and contributing to special teams. He did not let his lack of production at Alabama discourage him from his goal, and instead continued to work hard, and then went to Kansas where he continued to show off his talents. He is also is willing to get his hands dirty as a receiver and run block which is very key for the Seahawk offense which is run heavy. That mentality to do what is needed to best help the team as well as continue to grind both in games and on the practice field is something that falls in line with the Seahawks philosophy of Mind over BS. At 6’1” and 185lbs, he is not the biggest receiver. He ran a 4.44 second 40 yard dash , 2.59 second 20 yard split, and 1.56 second 10 yard split. Henderson’s speed and vision is his best tool in his toolkit, which helps him in the return game and with go routes. He has a Relative Athletic Score of 6.37, which per their metrics is “Okay.” Per PFSN his closest athletic testing comp was Jerry Jeudy , his size measurement comp was Tre Turner , and an overall comp was Ladd McConkey . Not bad comps for Henderson, but they do not guarantee success. With the depth in the wide receiver room, it will be difficult for him to get an offensive role right away, and will need to make a name for himself on special teams to make the 53-man roster. Dane Brugler’s profile on Henderson in The Beast notes that he played both defensive back and running back early on in his football career growing up. Once he got to Alabama, he moved to wide receiver, but had a hard time getting reps till he transferred to Kansas, where he made an impact as a receiver, returner and gunner, notching 14 tackles on special teams. The experience with multiple positions on offense, defense and special teams goes along with Mike’s philosophy of having players, and coaches too, with a variety of experience. Dane’s evaluation of the former Jayhawk boiled down to ensuring that, “his speed can be weaponized in the right role, and his special teams impact will be an i [... truncated ...]
It’s been an active offseason for the Las Vegas Raiders , as the organization made several changes, starting with hiring a new head coach, Klint Kubiak . The Raiders also spent over $280 million in total contract value during free agency to add a bunch of players to the roster. That sets up for a handful of “revenge games” for a few new Las Vegas residents. So, with the NFL schedule releasing on Thursday , let’s dive into those matchups. To be fair, “revenge” is a loose term when it comes to Kubiak and the Seattle Seahawks. There shouldn’t be any ill will after winning the Super Bowl, and that helped him land a promotion with the Raiders. But, as a competitor, part of Kubiak has to want to beat the Seahawks to help validate how much he meant to his old team and “win the breakup”, even if it was amicable. The coach doesn’t seem to be very ego-driven, but it’s human nature to want to feel like you were the biggest, or at least one of the biggest reasons why a team had success. Winning a game against the defending champs after taking over the worst team in the league will accomplish that. All of that being said, the game where Kubiak could be looking for more vengeance is against the New Orleans Saints. He was only the Saints’ offensive coordinator for a year and didn’t get retained when Kellen Moore took over for Dennis Allen as head coach. That creates some extra motivation for the new head coach in Las Vegas. Sticking with the Seahawks matchup, Young never got much of an opportunity in Seattle. He was more of a special teamer, only receiving 228 offensive snaps and seven targets over four seasons, per Pro Football Focus . While there’s no guarantee that he makes the Raiders’ 53-man roster, if the 2022 seventh-round pick does, he should be looking to prove something to his old team. Johnson spent eight years with the Buffalo Bills and played well enough to earn a second contract with the club and a second-team All-Pro bid in 2023. However, the front office decided to make him a salary cap casualty this spring. Buffalo was prepared to release the veteran defensive back before Las Vegas stepped in and was willing to swap a sixth-round pick for a seventh and take on the rest of his contract. The soon-to-be 30-year-old has battled injuries over the last couple of years, and presumptively, his combination of age and missing nine games in 2024 and 2025 is what led the Bills to feel he was expendable. This fall, Johnson has a chance to show his old team that he still has it. After spending the last two seasons as a backup for the San Francisco 49ers , Burford will have a chance to earn a starting spot on Las Vegas’ offensive line. He made 29 starts as a rookie and second-year pro in San Francisco before getting moved down the depth chart and not receiving a second contract from the 49ers. So, if the 2022 fourth-round pick is on the field for the Raiders this year, expect him to have some extra motivation for the (former) Bay Area rivalry
