Jack Jones and Nate Hobbs are the penciled in starters at one outside cornerback spot and the nickel/slot role for the Las Vegas Raiders. But what about the other perimeter position?
That’s a key question for the Silver & Black this offseason.
Jones and Hobbs are considered favorites to start in large part due to their production from this past season, but also the energy and mentality both bring to the position group. Jones, a 26-year-old flier waiver claim from the New England Patriots, validated head coach Antonio Pierce’s belief in him by starting three games (seven games played) and intercepting two passes — both for pick sixes.
