Saturday the latest new football league will kick off, trying to fill the void in the NFL offseason. It’s the Alliance of American Football and it will allow those who wish to still play football without going to Canada a chance to keep playing and perhaps show the NFL they deserve a real shot.
Among those who will take the field include many former Raiders, some who were with the team just last year. There are also a few coaches who were former Raiders. I counted a total of 18 former Raiders among the rosters and staffs of the eight teams in the league.
