The Las Vegas Raiders kick off their preseason slate against the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday, and here are three players who need to impress.

The NFL preseason has always been a stage for players to prove themselves, and this year, the Las Vegas Raiders have plenty of players looking to not only make the team but there are a lot of starting jobs up for grabs. This year, there are only three preseason games so it will be interesting to see how much established players play throughout the summer.

Dozens of Las Vegas players will be looking to make an impact in week one of the NFL preseason, where they will be facing the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday. This is the first time we will get to see the rookies in action, as well as the new faces on the roster, as the team once again made wholesale changes on both sides of the ball.

Las Vegas will also be welcoming fans to Allegiant Stadium for the first time for a preseason or regular-season game, as the COVID-19 pandemic did not allow it in 2020. The Raiders, like every other team in the league, have plenty of storylines this summer, and the action kicks off tomorrow night.

While every player will be looking to make an impact, there are three that stand out as having a little bit more pressure on them in this first game.
