Raiders Bringing Back Keelan Cole
Wide receiver Keelan Cole is returning to the Las Vegas Raiders for next season.
The club announced it had re-signed the unrestricted free agent on Thursday.
This will be Cole's second year with the organization. The veteran wideout made the 53-man roster before the 2022 season and was added to the active roster ahead of the team's Week 3 game against the Tennessee Titans.
Cole appeared in 14 games for the Raiders, having made three starts. He finished the season with 141 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Cole came into the league in 2017 as an undrafted free agent out of Kentucky Wesleyan. He was signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he played for four seasons.
As a Jaguar, Cole totaled 2,242 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns in 64 games. He made 23 starts in that time.
Cole then had a one-year stint with the New York Jets before last season. He played in 15 games, recording 449 receiving yards and a touchdown.
Cole has posted 2,832 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns in his six NFL seasons.
Cole also has registered 82 receiving yards throughout three playoff games, all during his rookie campaign.
The 2023 NFL Draft will go from April 27-29 and be held at Union Station in Kansas City, Mo. The 2023 NFL Year and Free Agency period began at 4 p.m. EDT on March 15.
The Raiders are expected to be significant players in the free-agent market this season.
