The Las Vegas Raiders have reportedly signed New England Patriots restricted free agent linebacker Christian Elliss to an offer sheet, per ESPN's Mike Reiss.
Due to Elliss being a restricted free agent, it means the deal is simply a placeholder until the Patriots make a decision on what they want to do.
They've tendered Elliss as a right-of-first-refusal restricted free agent, which means they'll have until Monday to match the offer set by Las Vegas. If they match that offer, Elliss would return to New England for another season.
However, if they refuse to match, Elliss will be playing football for the Raiders in 2025, and the Patriots won't receive draft compensation for losing him.
