Raiders’ pursuit of Yannick Ngakoue might not be over yet

After being dormant since the draft, trade talk involving Jacksonville Jaguars pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue resurfaced this week with The Athletic reporting that the Jags were close to a deal with two teams, which would be finalized by Thursday.

Of course, it is now Friday and no deal has happened and the Jaguars have denied any trade talks. However, there was more fuel to the rumors that the Raiders could end up trading for Ngakoue, who is just 25 and who has 37.5 career sacks in four NFL seasons.

Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reported that the Raiders are the one team that is keeping in touch with Jacksonville on Ngakoue.
