The Las Vegas Raiders recently completed their rookie minicamp. Coach Antonio Pierce explained the goals of the camp.
The Las Vegas Raiders recently completed their two-day rookie mini-camp, during which the team’s rookies practiced together for the first time as Raiders. The practices gave the first glimpses of what to expect from the incoming players, specifically tight end Brock Bowers and offensive lineman Jackson Powers-Johnson.
They will add those two rookies to a new offensive system, as the Raiders will introduce an offensive coordinator and a new offensive line coach -- Luke Getsy and James Cregg, respectively. The Raiders have new players and coaches and will host their training camp at a new location. "Learning, we're in elementary school. How we do things, the Raider way, the Raider culture, the mindset, how we play football, how we practice, and how we study," Pierce said on Friday, the first day of rookie minicamp. "They're doing that now in the classroom."“I mean that bright-eyed. I asked them to be five minutes early," Pierce said. "They're here about 20 minutes early and sitting in the room by themselves.
