Name recognition is considerably light when it comes to the Las Vegas Raiders cornerback room. Outside perhaps veterans Duke Shelly, Nate Hobbs, and Brandon Facyson, there isn’t a solid household name in the CB room.
And that’s a good thing for Jakorian Bennett.
Despite having 10 players at the cornerback spot, the fourth-round rookie out of Maryland is afforded a prime opportunity to prove he deserves to stick on the roster. He’s the only rook on Las Vegas’ 90-man roster, however, fortunately for the speedy corner, he has the ball disruption skills the Raiders so desperately need.
