In this story:
HENDERSON, Nev.--The Las Vegas Raiders have opened their 2023 NFL Training Camp, and today is the first off-day of the camp for the Silver and Black.
So in our latest episode of the Las Vegas Raiders Insider Podcast, we take you inside the camp to get the latest news, notes, and observations that only an insider can provide, and it makes you feel like you are standing next to the field with us.
You can watch the entire podcast below:
In this podcast, we cover many points we observed about the Raiders and share those insider nuggets with you and some more. The issues we cover include:
· The Las Vegas Raiders have had some young players shine early. While it is impossible to judge a rookie when he hasn't even put on pads in the NFL yet, you can certainly keep an eye on them, and we will tell you who to watch.
· Jimmy Garoppolo had high praise for Davante Adams, but what he said is critical for the Las Vegas Raiders' success in 2023. We tell you what those comments were.
· Kolton Miller, the Las Vegas Raiders left tackle, is a stalwart in the National Football League, his voice is respected around the league, and he honestly assessed the Silver and Black offensive line.
· Defensive end Chandler Jones has accomplished so much as he enters his 12th season in the National Football League, yet he and I talked about him not having to play but wanting to play and why that is a big deal for a bounce-back 2023.
· Kicker Daniel Carlson has an opinion that isn’t matched by many of his caliber, and when we tell you what it is, it mighty shock you.
· Wide receiver Hunter Renfrow is not only a good football player but an honest and good man. He has some blunt words about last season and his conversations with Coach Josh McDaniels and General Manager Dave Ziegler.
· Guard Dylan Parham is coming off a very successful rookie campaign in 2022. But he isn’t comfortable and looks to take the next step to stardom in 2023.
· Trust us. We have plenty more, some 18 observations and two rumors that we shoot down.
The Silver and Black open the preseason by hosting the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, Aug. 13, at 4 p.m. EDT/1 p.m. PDT.
