Jakorian Bennett seemingly has early edge in cornerback competition

Second-year pro Jakorian Bennett had a strong showing during the Las Vegas Raiders’ spring practices and reportedly took the majority of the first-team reps. That made Bennett the favorite to win the Raiders’ open competition for a starting cornerback spot heading into training camp. About a week into camp, it sounds like the 2023 fourth-round pick has picked up right where he left off.

“The club is impressed with Jakorian Bennett, a second-year cornerback from Maryland who is making big strides and turning the heads of the coaching staff and his teammates,” the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s Vincent Bonsignore wrote.
