Las Vegas Raiders at Cleveland Browns: 3 Raiders to watch in Week 15

Hunter Renfrow

Derek Carr may be the leader of not only this offense but this team. However, wide receiver Hunter Renfrow is the catalyst.

The receiver has been the only consistent target Carr has had this season, and week-to-week the slot receiver has delivered.

Double teamed constantly, as well as being watched on nearly every Raider play, somehow and someway the frail receiver keeps making plays.

Hardly having the build of the “ideal” NFL player, his play continues to shock everyone on a near-weekly basis. His 13 reception and 117-yard performance in last week’s loss was on full display, even if the Chiefs manhandled the Raiders offense for the most part.

The Silver and Black will only reach as far as the former fifth-round pick will take them. Even if the Raiders can get back tight end Darren Waller this week, the offense is run through Renfrow, and if the Raiders can somehow turn around this troubling season, Carr must look to Renfrow early and often in this contest.
