Matt Holder is a life-long Raiders fan who has been writing about the team since 2017. He has been at Silver and Black Pride since 2021. He graduated from the Scouting Academy and worked in recruiting at the college level.
While adding a cornerback with the sixth overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft was already on the table for the Las Vegas Raiders, the defense’s need for a corner heightened with the decision to move on from Jack Jones.
As a result, the Raiders taking Michigan’s Will Johnson in the first round later this month has gained some steam recently and, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, he’ll be in Las Vegas for a visit next week.
