2020 Las Vegas Raiders 53-man roster projection entering training camp

Tight End (3): Darren Waller, Foster Moreau, Jason Witten

Darren Waller is one of the best tight ends in the NFL, so you can write his spot on the team in Sharpie or carve it in stone. You might as well put his name down for a Pro Bowl slot as well after the 2020 season.

Foster Moreau was dynamite in the red zone before his ACL injury and he may see a smaller role in 2020 thanks to Jason Witten, but he clearly has the tools to make a difference for the Raiders. Witten is long in the tooth, but still has something left in the tank, and can make an impact both on the field and in the locker room.

Jon Gruden loves his tight ends, and he may choose to keep Derek Carrier on the roster as well thanks to his versatility, but he will have a hard time beating out Moreau or Witten if Gruden only keeps three on the roster.
