The Las Vegas Raiders are banking on young players to be major contributors on the offensive side of the ball in 2024.
If they want to be a playoff team in 2024, they need to be better at running and throwing the football. There were several games where the defenses kept them in games, but their offense would not deliver.
If Minshew does not win the starting job, the Raiders staff is likely confident in the jump O’Connell will make in his second season. He was good, not great, in his rookie season, but there were reasons to believe he could build on that season and be an adequate starter. However, on the offensive side of the ball, there is more youth than just O’Connell. The Raiders have some young players ready to take on bigger roles on the offensive line and in their skill groups.
Beyond star Davante Adams and veteran Jakobi Meyers, second-year receiver Tre Tucker looks to have a bigger role in the offense. He has the inside track to be the Raiders’ WR3 in 2024, looking to prove he’s more than just a burner who can take the top off a defense.
