The Las Vegas Raiders held a single second round pick after picking three times in the first round last year, and with that selection, they added their second Clemson Tiger. Trayvon Mullen would be the second of three Clemson players the Raiders would select on draft day, and once inserted into the starting lineup, he became a key player in the team's defensive backfield.
An honorable mention All-ACC performer at Clemson, Mullen appeared in all 16 games for the Raiders as a rookie, though he made only ten starts. His first start came in Week 7 against Houston after the team traded away Gareon Conley, and finished with ten passes defended, and one interception.
