Austin Hooper agrees to deal with Las Vegas Raiders
After spending this past season with the Tennessee Titans, former Stanford tight end Austin Hooper has agreed to a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders.
Hooper is coming off a season that saw him record 41 catches for 444 yards, and two touchdowns. He joins what can only be considered to be a new era of Raider football, as Las Vegas recently parted ways with Derek Carr, traded for quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, and also sent tight end Darren Waller to the New York Giants.
The 28-year old Hooper, is a two-time Pro Bowl selection, who was originally selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the third round out of Stanford in the 2016 draft. He spent his first four seasons with the Falcons prior to being signed by the Cleveland Browns in 2020.
Over the span of his seven year career, he has accumulated 339 catches for 3,468 yards and 25 touchdowns in his career.
