The Las Vegas Raiders have set their initial 53-man roster for the 2024 regular season.
There really weren’t many surprises and no big bombshell moves made. Here are some early thoughts on the cuts and the roster as it stands now:
There will be movement this week as general manager Tom Telesco indicated Tuesday afternoon with reporters, saying this current 53-man roster is “a starting point.” Teams can claim players through waivers Wednesday and free agents can be signed immediately. So, this roster is fluid.
Seven of the team’s eight draft picks made the 53-man roster with seventh-round pick, safety Trey Taylor starting the season on the injured reserve.
