Las Vegas/Oakland Raiders
Jon Gruden is a fickle man, who seemed to grow tired of Derek Carr last summer only to help the quarterback manage an absurd 70.4 completion percentage. Gruden also benched Carr during a humiliating loss to the Jets. It’s easy to imagine the coach is considering every option. And, of course, Brady may be one of them.
Just like Carolina could ditch Newton, the Raiders could ditch Carr. Brady would step right in as a natural replacement. Oakland needs more talent at receiver, but with $67 million in cap space, they can certainly afford an upgrade. But tight end Darren Waller, and receivers Tyrell Williams and Hunter Renfrow are a good place to start. Running back Josh Jacobs will be in his second year, too.
There’s a lot for Brady to like about the Raiders — but Las Vegas might be a tough sell for the quarterback’s family.
