Wide receiver Jalen Nailor has agreed to a three-year, $35 million deal with the Las Vegas Raiders. Given what the Raiders currently have on their depth chart at the position. . .and, yes, I know it’s early in the offseason. . .Nailor could well be WR1 in Sin City as it stands right now.
The most significant loss came in the form of speedy receiver Jalen Nailor. It seemed like it was always going to be hard for the Vikings to retain Nailor given the fact he was highly coveted by a number of teams. It actually might have been impossible now, knowing that a potential homecoming was on the table.
The Las Vegas Raiders are making offensive adjustments to strengthen the team for next season, and with Jalen Nailor now in the wide receiver room, things look more solid thanks to a player who gained significant experience with the Minnesota Vikings.
The Raiders are setting the table for their next quarterback, Fernando Mendoza. Shortly after agreeing to terms on a record-breaking contract with Ravens center Tyler Linderbaum, a person with knowledge of the situation confirms they have reached an agreement on a 3-year contract with Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor.
The Las Vegas Raiders' roster overhaul continues with the free-agent signing of a key Minnesota Vikings wide receiver.
“Contracts cannot be officially signed until the new league year begins on Wednesday, but teams were allowed to begin negotiating at 9 a.m. on Monday. Nailor was a sixth-round pick of the Vikings in 2022 out of Michigan State and has spent his entire career in Minnesota. He has 69 catches for 1,066 yards and 11 touchdowns in three seasons.”
The Vikings added cornerback James Pierre on the first day of the NFL's legal tampering period Monday, but lost Jalen Nailor and Ryan Wright.
