4 notable Raiders who could be entering their last season in Las Vegas

Zay Jones, WR

The wide receiver group in Las Vegas is going to be an interesting one once again in 2021, as the top option from last season, Nelson Agholor, is now playing with the New England Patriots. The hope for the organization is that 2020 draft picks Henry Ruggs III and Bryan Edwards step up in a big way this offseason, giving them a tremendous young duo atop the depth chart for years to come.

Looking past Ruggs and Edwards, there are a few veterans to keep an eye on, including John Brown, Willie Snead, and Zay Jones. While Brown and Snead are new, Jones is a favorite of Derek Carr, and that has helped him continue to be on this roster across the last few seasons.

In 2022, Jones will be entering free agency, and if Ruggs and Edwards step up, there may not be room for him to continue to be on this depth chart. He has not done much since putting on the Silver and Black, despite being a talented weapon, and that could lead to him linking up with a new franchise after the 2021 NFL season.
