With 33 days before the Raiders kick off their era in Las Vegas, we look at two guys who wore the No. 33 in dominant fashion for the franchise.

Incredibly, we are a little over a month before the Las Vegas Raiders kick off their latest era of football, as they move into their $2 billion stadium in the desert. Unfortunately, fans will not be able to attend games this year, but the prideful Raider Nation will be cheering them on from all ends of the world.

In fact, we are only 33 days away from the team’s opener on September 13, 2020 against the Carolina Panthers. Until then, fans will have to hope that the NFL season does in fact start on time, as the COVID-19 pandemic is still decimating normal, everyday life in America and abroad.

The number 33 has gotten a lot of wear in the Silver and Black, it is a number, that has bounced from defensive back to running back like a beachball in a rally. During that time, there have been some standout players to put it on, including a Super Bowl hero at running back, and a punishing safety.

Here is a look at two Raiders who did the No. 33 proud.
