Jaquan Johnson wasn’t a big-name free agent Raider Nation was likely looking for at the onset of free agency back in March. In fact, on the surface, it read as a depth/camp fodder signing.
While it may end up that way, the Las Vegas Raiders brought in a safety who can not only make a strong case for special teams ace, but someone who can earn defensive snaps in a pinch and pitch in when needed on defense. Considering Las Vegas’ depth isn’t quality, Johnson has a chance to stick — particularly if he’s in a head-to-head competition with incumbent Roderic Teamer.
