There were few young veterans who arrived at the Raiders’ training camp last month with more to prove than Arden Key. It appears he understood that and he is responding well.
The Athletic reported that the third-year defensive end has stood out in the first two days of padded practice at the Raiders’ Henderson, Nevada practice facility and he looked “explosive.”
That is a major deal, folks.
I’ve been told the Raiders were losing patience with the 2018 third-round pick and that he needed to show something in training camp. He produced little in his first two NFL season.
