Earlier Thursday afternoon, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Seahawks’ QB Russell Wilson had informed Seattle of a short-list of teams that he would be willing to accept a trade to if one were to occur. This short-list included the Chicago Bears, New Orleans Saints, Dallas Cowboys, and, yes, Las Vegas Raiders.

Rumors have been swirling of the Raiders’ desire to upgrade at the quarterback position and move on from current signal-caller Derek Carr ever since Jon Gruden returned to coach the Silver and Black.
