Raiders' Justin Shorter: Placed on reserve/injured list
Shorter (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/injured list by the Raiders on Monday.
It's unclear what Shorter's injury is, but he'll have to reach an injury settlement with the Raiders to have a chance to play in 2026. A fifth-round pick of the Bills in 2023, he saw action in seven regular-season contests with Las Vegas last year, playing on five offensive snaps and 81 special-teams snaps. He has yet to record an NFL catch.

Raiders' Jonathan Brady: Signs with Vegas
The Raiders signed Brady as an undrafted free agent Monday.
The Las Vegas native from Bishop Gorman High School spent time with New Mexico State, Cal and Indiana in the college ranks, winning a national title with the Hoosiers in 2025. With Indiana, he served primarily as a punt-return specialist, averaging 16.5 yards across 21 returns, the sixth-best mark in the FBS. Now, he'll try to carve out a role with the Raiders as well.

Raiders' Fernando Mendoza: Learning to play under center
Mendoza has primarily taken snaps under center during rookie minicamp as he adjusts to head coach Klint Kubiak's offense after playing almost exclusively in shotgun formation in college, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Mendoza took just five snaps under center in three years split between California and Indiana, and the rookie first overall pick said after Saturday's practice that he "still has a long way to go" as he acclimates to playing primarily under center at the NFL level. He's a quick and motivated learner by all accounts, but if Mendoza needs more time to adjust to the NFL level, that could open the door for veteran Kirk Cousins to beat out the heralded rookie for the starting job out of the gate. More clarity on the state of Vegas' quarterback competition will likely materialize during training camp and the preseason in the coming months.

Raiders' Patrick Gurd: Joins Raiders
Gurd signed with the Raiders as an undrafted free agent Saturday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
Gurd began his collegiate career at Ohio State and ended his time at Cincinnati. He's primarily a blocking tight end, as he logged only three catches for 46 yards across 12 games with the Bearcats in 2025. Given the depth and talent that the Raiders boast at tight end, Gurd likely has a difficult path to the roster.

Raiders' E.J. Williams: Joins Mendoza with Las Vegas
Williams signed as an undrafted free agent with the Raiders on Thursday.
Williams played his first three collegiate campaigns with Clemson before transferring to Indiana. In his final year of eligibility, he recorded 36 catches for 438 yards and six touchdowns over 15 games. Williams didn't have the most prolific college career and struggled to stay healthy at times, but he has good size at 6-foot-3 and could have a slight advantage over the Raiders' other rookie wideouts entering training camp because he played at Indiana with QB Fernando Mendoza, who Las Vegas drafted first overall in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Raiders' Corey Rucker: Gets chance with Raiders
Las Vegas signed Rucker as an undrafted free agent Thursday.
Rucker finished a strong collegiate career by recording over 1,000 receiving yards with Arkansas State in each of his final two campaigns. He scored 11 touchdowns and averaged 72 catches during that two-year span. His biggest claim to fame, however, is his NCAA freshman record of 310 receiving yards in a contest against Louisiana-Monroe in 2020. He has good speed (4.38 40-yard dash) and stands 6-foot tall, but spending almost all of his time during college in the Sun Belt may have hurt his draft status. Regardless, Las Vegas isn't brimming with WR talent, so Rucker could feasibly see NFL action as a rookie if he impresses the organization.

Raiders' Chase Roberts: Joins Las Vegas as UDFA
Roberts signed as an undrafted free agent with the Raiders on Thursday.
Roberts played four seasons for BYU and averaged 53 catches for 828 yards and five touchdowns over his final two campaigns. He has good height at 6-foot-4 but lacks vertical speed. Las Vegas has one of the league's least-established WR corps, so Roberts could compete for a roster spot as a depth wideout if he impresses in training camp.

Raiders' Matt Lauter: Inks deal with Raiders
Las Vegas signed Lauter as an undrafted free agent Thursday.
Lauter spent all four of his collegiate campaigns with Boise State and had his best season as a junior, when he caught 47 passes for 619 yards and seven touchdowns over 14 games. The 6-foot-4 tight end took a step back as a senior, however, recording just 330 yards and two TDs on 37 receptions across 13 contests. The Raiders have one of the NFL's best 1-2 combinations at tight end with Brock Bowers (knee) and Michael Mayer, so Lauter probably won't see much game-day action early in his career.

Raiders' Jacob Clark: Links up with Las Vegas
The Raiders signed Clark as an undrafted free agent Thursday.
Clark began his collegiate career with Minnesota before transferring to Missouri State. During his senior year, he completed 65.7 percent of his passes for 3,244 yards and a 28:11 TD:INT. Clark has a quick release but doesn't have a particularly strong arm. Las Vegas drafted Fernando Mendoza first overall and also signed veteran Kirk Cousins in early April, so Clark figures to develop on the practice squad if he sticks with the organization.
