Summary
The season started off in promising fashion for the Las Vegas Raiders, who were 2-0 after a win over the Saints at their new stadium. Now, Jon Gruden’s team has lost two straight, and has been under scrutiny for some of their behavior off the field, including a fundraiser where a number of players were seen not wearing masks. Today, we’re joined by The Athletic’s Tashan Reed to discuss the missteps off the field for the Raiders, the team’s tumultuous first four games, and where Gruden and Las Vegas go from here.
