The Las Vegas Raiders take on the Seattle Seahawks in the first game of their preseason schedule, and here is how you can catch the action online.
We have officially reached the start of the Las Vegas Raiders 2021 preseason, as they will welcome the Seattle Seahawks to Allegiant Stadium tonight. It will be the first game they will play in front of the fans, as COVID-19 did not allow that to happen in the inaugural season in Las Vegas.
Last season, the Raiders were supposed to kick off their 2020 preseason against these same Seahawks, but the preseason was completely canceled due to the pandemic also. Tonight, they will battle it out in a game between two teams looking to make some noise in the playoff hunt this season, as both are expected to be playoff contenders in their respective conferences in 2021.
Settle in for what should be an exciting matchup, as fans cheer on the Silver and Black in person.
