By Brad Weiss
The Las Vegas Raiders let some key players walk in free agency this past offseason, and here are three of them who really failed their new organization.
Last offseason, the Las Vegas Raiders had plenty of decisions to make in free agency, as nearly half of the roster was entering the market. While some remained with the Silver and Black, some left for what they thought was a better situation, and some guys really improved outside of Las Vegas.
While guys like Zay Jones, Quinton Jefferson, and Alec Ingold are likely happy they left, some former Raiders had a rough go in 2022 with their new organizations. Here, we look at three formers Raiders who moved on in 2022, and failed their new teams.

No. 3: Brandon Facyson, CB, Indianapolis Colts
With Gus Bradley heading to Indianapolis, cornerback Brandon Facyson followed suit and appeared in 16 of the 17 games the Colts played in 2022. Unfortunately, his production took a big step backward, as the Colts’ secondary was a big reason why they were one of the worst teams in the AFC this past season.
Coltswire.com recently named Facyson as one of their top-5 most disappointing players from the 2022 season, and for good reason. Basically, his production was cut in half from the previous season, and as he enters another free agency period, the likelihood of the new coaching staff bringing him back is minimal.
