The Las Vegas Raiders agreed to terms with linebacker Elandon Roberts this week. Let’s get to know him better:
Same road as guy he replaced:
Roberts spent the past two seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The player he is replacing, Robert Spillane (who signed with the New England Patriots), also joined the Raiders from Pittsburgh. That worked out pretty well. Roberts, who turns 31 in April, started 29 games for the Steelers. He had 101 tackles in 2023 and 46 stops in 2024.
Same roots as DC:
Roberts has never played for Las Vegas defensive coordinator Patrick Graham.
