Roberts finished Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs with 18 tackles (seven solo), including one stop for a loss. Roberts was on the field for 75 of 81 defensive snaps (92.6 percent) and joined three other Raiders defenders in registering double-digit stops. His 18 tackles were the most of his 10-year NFL career and just the sixth time he has logged double-digit tackles in a game. Roberts is up to 40 stops through seven regular-season games, and he should surpass his total from the 2024 campaign (46 tackles across 17 regular-season games) as a member of the Steelers.

Roberts (elbow) isn't on the Las Vegas' injury report ahead of Monday's matchup versus the Chargers, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports. Roberts is healthy again after picking up an elbow injury in the fourth quarter of the team's Week 1 win over the Patriots. He will once again serve as the team's starting middle linebacker for Monday's matchup.

Roberts (elbow) did not practice Thursday. Roberts was injured in the Raiders' Week 1 win over the Patriots and was unable to return to the contest. Tommy Eichenberg replaced Roberts in the lineup and would be in line to possibly start in Week 2 against the Chargers on Monday night if Roberts is deemed inactive.

Roberts is questionable to return to Sunday's game against New England due to a left elbow injury, Paul Gutierrez of Raiders.com reports. Roberts suffered the injury late in the first quarter and will undergo further tests to determine the severity of the issue. Tommy Eichenberg will see an uptick in snaps at middle linebacker for as long as Roberts is sidelined.

The Raiders agreed to terms with Roberts on a one-year, $3 million contract Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The Raiders lost Robert Spillane in free agency Monday, and Divine Deablo is also free to sign elsewhere. Roberts' addition will help mitigate those losses after the 30-year-old linebacker started 14 of 17 regular-season games for the Steelers last season, recording 46 tackles (24 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble on 44 percent of the defensive snaps.
