The Las Vegas Raiders have had a disappointing few years.
The Raiders have not had a winning season, nor have they made the playoffs since 2021. The team hasn’t won more than eight games in that stretch, which concluded with a 3-14 season in 2025. Last year’s futility landed them with the No. 1 overall pick of the 2026 draft.

Tom Brady, a minority owner of the Raiders and FOX’s lead color commentator, put the organization on notice in a recent interview on the “Stick to Football” podcast.
“I would expect a lot of improvement from where it’s been. Last year, we just underperformed in every area,” he said. “And it’s everybody’s fault. That’s the reality.
“There’s nobody who did a good job. There’s not one player in the organization, there’s not anybody involved that did the job to the level that it needs to be done at. And everybody needs to improve. And it starts with me, and it filters down to the rest of the players on the field, and they’ve got to go out there, and ultimately they’ve got to perform at a high level.”
Brady said he expected a “massive improvement” all around as the team revamped its personnel from the sidelines down to those playing on the field.
He added that with more reps on the field, a good team should be better from the beginning of the year to the end.
The team hired Klint Kubiak as its new head coach in the offseason after he helped guide the Seattle Seahawks to a Super Bowl title.
The Raiders selected quarterback Fernando Mendoza with the top pick and signed Kirk Cousins to ramp up the competition at the position. The team also signed Tyler Linderbaum, Quay Walker, Kwity Payne, Connor Heyward and Jalen Nailor among others.
Las Vegas will open up the season against the Miami Dolphins in Week 1 on Sept. 13.
